“Perfectly captures the confounding moment between college graduation and adult responsibilities. All in all, the drunken escapades are great fun.” —Publishers Weekly“With a great ear for dialogue and a keen eye for place, Fletcher Michael’s Glass Bottle Season offers both a sharp dissection of privilege and an ode to the summers of youth. This is a smart, entertaining, and poignant story about the messiness of life on the cusp of adulthood.” —Alix Ohlin, award-winning author of Dual Citizens“Glass Bottle Season, a buoyant coming-of-age story that follows Raymond as he desperately attempts to solidify his place among the hobnobbing elites of Newport, Rhode Island, is more than just a delightful beach read. Fletcher Michael’s second novel will stick with you long after the last grains of sand have been vacuumed from the trunk of your car.” —James P. MacGuire, author of Out of Time: Surviving the Sixties and Real Lace Revisited“Fletcher Michael’s Glass Bottle Season is a closely observed coming-of-age tale set against the backdrop of the insular culture of Newport royalty. This boozy, immersive novel will resonate with anyone who has ever felt like an outsider or has experienced that painful passage between the last gasps of childhood and beginnings of adulthood. It’s a terrific beach read, and just like summer, you won’t want it to end.” —Michelle Brafman, author of Washing the Dead and Bertrand Court“This boozy coming-of-age novel is a great read for anyone who’s felt out-of-place in their own home, or clung too hard to that one last carefree summer.” —Tyler McMahon, author of One Potato
