Detailing life in tiny, artsy, anything-goes Key West-where Broadway composers and bestselling authors live on the same funky blocks as housekeepers, bartenders, and tour guides-this updated collection of essays and columns about island life features pieces that first appeared in the *Miami Herald. *Profiles of colorful characters such as an Italian heiress who waits tables, a dishwasher with a PhD, and a taxi-driving opera singer provide a kaleidoscopic portrait of residents living, working, and playing in a caste-free, rowdy paradise.
