The Tender Bar : A Memoir
Author(s): J. R. Moehringer
J.R. Moehringer grew up listening for the sound of his missing father, a disc jockey who disappeared before J.R. spoke his first words. His mother was his world, his anchor, but J.R. needed something more. So, he turned to the patrons of a grand old New York saloon. There, the flamboyant characters along the bar taught him, tended him, and provided a kind of fatherhood by committee. Riveting, moving, and achingly funny, The Tender Bar is an evocative portrait of one boy's struggle to become a man. First published 2005.
