Summary
In the late 1960s, Pop artist Andy Warhol set out to make an unconventional novel. The twenty-four one-hour tapes were transcribed by four women: The Velvet Underground's drummer Maureen Tucker, a Barnard student Susan Pile, and two young women. In Nothing Special , Nicole Flattery imagines the lives of those high school students: precocious and wise beyond their years but still only teenagers, working all day in the surreal and increasingly dangerous world of Andy Warhol's Factory, and learning to shape and reshape their identities as they navigate between their low-paid, grueling jobs and their lives at home, in a time of social change for girls and women in America
