Heaven or Las Vegas by Anthony G. Pappalardo
60 Pages Second Edition Soft Cover | Fiction
She's a popular girl leading a dark double life. He's an intentional outcast, happily existing out of their small town's social hierarchy. They both use every moment outside of school and work to escape the suburban malaise, often with severe repercussions. Nothing ever happens in their town but there's so much going on.
Heaven or Las Vegas is a work of fiction set in early-'90s New England, oscillating between two strong-minded teenagers' distinct worlds and the subcultures they choose as home, no matter how unstable.
Second printing of 300 copies with a blurb by Walter Schreifels.
