The Hottest State
A young actor falls hard for a woman he meets at a New York bar, in Ethan Hawke's debut novel.
William is a few months short of twenty-one and about to act in his first movie when he meets Sarah at a New York bar called the Bitter End. Used to getting what he wants, he has never cared deeply for anyone until now. Ethan Hawke’s 1996 debut novel follows their affair from the Lower East Side to Paris. Hawke later wrote and directed a 2006 film of the book.
