Winner of the Tartt First Fiction Award! Set in the hardscrabble Western Pennsylvania mill town of Ganaego, the interconnected stories in I'LL BE HERE FOR YOU: DIARY OF A TOWN present an ethnic and generational stew of lives and passions. We meet Tody Wolding, director of Ganaego's ragtag thespian troupe and a crossdresser in a conservative community; Julie Namar, who borrows enough cash to keep her flagging dance studio going-only to give the money away; and Darlene Paczkowski, the librarian who has dreamed all the wrong dreams and met all the wrong men, who mourns the death of a desolate child who came to her story hours and never spoke.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46454164324503,"sku":"9781604892529","price":1599.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781604892529.webp?v=1769147770","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/ill-be-here-for-you-9781604892529","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
