PA Author Suzanne Mattaboni and New Hope Winery to Throw Book Signing Party December 4 at 6 p.m.
The novel follows the antics of four avant-garde, post-punk college girls looking for love, adventures, and tuition money during a wild, 1980s summer. It reflects the true-life zeitgeist of the New Hope of that era, depicting everything from the progressive town’s popular New Wave dance bar (a thinly-veiled Zadar’s); to its nearby punk boutiques; to various frantic restaurant kitchens, moody bars, buzzing late-night sidewalks, and volatile club performers--all of which attracted artistic and well-heeled tourists and celebrities from New York and other neighboring hot spots. New Hope has since become known as a country getaway for the rich and famous, in addition to serving as a dedicated homestead for long-time Pennsylvania locals. The New Hope Winery has become a favored venue, hosting acts like The English Beat and Fleetwood Mac tribute band Tusk in November.
