     Sidecars, Manhattans, Daiquiris, Stingers: cocktail culture and mixology are incredibly hot right now, and right on time comes Jack Newcastle's hilarious novel about original cocktailian Roosevelt P. Lane. Here it is. All the grandeur and glamour of New York, 1953. It's two shows nightly at El Morocco and late-night dinners at The Stork. It's an era of quiz-panel programs, of debutantes and dinner jackets, of communists, pickpockets, and artists manqué. Follow hapless reporter Roosevelt P. Lane as he tries to decide which girl is the one for him. Will it be that lovable but ingenuous Hollywood starlet Haley Molloy or the erudite Claire Bannerman, a freethinking progressive who's about to land him in a world of intrigue? Jack Newcastle's highball comedy of manners is a return to the days of too much gin and too many cigarettes, and its hero is about to learn that New York is a big city, incredibly huge, till he tries to date two women at once.
