Product Description The author of "Losing Philadelphia" describes it as a "triptych"--three separate but related stories of a group of young hopefuls--artistic and otherwise--who are either living in or passing through New York City at different times during the 1980s. Its central character, Richard Finney, is a dazzlingly-gifted but still-struggling pianist who leaves the imprint of both his music and his self on those who befriend, annoy, or just hang around him. "Finney's circle," as you'll see, is quite a cast of characters indeed. About the Author Kelley Dupuis was born in Vermont, grew up in California, and has traveled extensively throughout the United States and around the world--including many visits to New York. His first novel, "Tower-102,", was published under the name Alexander Dupuis in 2000. He lives in Baltimore, Maryland.
