Bad Haircut by Tom Perrotta

The literary debut from the author of Little Children, Election and The Abstinence Teacher.

‘More powerful than any coming-of-age novel I’ve read recently…These stories of the 70s deserve to be read by everyone who grew up in that blighted decade’ Washington Post

‘A strong, funny debut.’ Washington Times

‘Perrotta’s novels are sheer pleasure.’ San Francisco Chronicle

‘Darkly tender, simply written tales about growing up in the Garden State in the 1970s.’ New York Times

‘Funny and ingenious…It’s tempting to call “Bad Haircut” an “auspicious” book, but that doesn’t say enough; in fact Perrotta has already delivered the goods.’ Los Angeles Times

‘His stories remind me…in their wit and humanity and cumulative impact, of Philip Roth’s “Goodbye Colombus”. Like that book, Perrotta’s funny and deeply touching collection marks the arrival of a writer who’s here for the long haul.’ Tobias Wolff

Tom Perrotta is the author of several works of fiction, including ‘Little Children’, ‘Joe College’ and ‘Election’. He lives outside Boston, Massachusetts.
