Honest, often embarrassing self-examination is a hallmark of author Steve Oskie’s hilarious
Glassman, a memoirish novel about a 20-something college dropout in search of his next
low-wage job that he’ll laughably lose in record time. Set in Philadelphia and Long Beach
Island of the 1980s, the novel follows Mark Glassman as he evolves – from a “slacker”
pursuing any number of housemates, waitresses, co-workers, and the idealized,
unattainable Teresa Devlin – into a mensch. Poignant and flat-out funny, it’s a five-star read
that leavens the pathos of unrequited love and Glassman’s fractured-family drama with his
periodic triumphs and countless laughs. Glassman? It’s a gas, man!
