An Evening with Birdy O Day Book PDF Summary

A funny, boisterous and deeply moving novel about Roland, now an aging hairstylist, and his childhood friendship with and Birdy O'Day, whose fevered quest for pop music glory drives them apart Roland Keener is an aging hairstylist who's lived and worked in the same town all his life. He's more or less content with the quiet and predictable days he shares with his partner of twenty-five years, Tony. That is, until he hears that Birdy O'Day - washed-up music icon and Roland's childhood best friend and first love - is playing his first hometown concert since fleeing decades earlier. Holing up with scrapbooks of news clippings about Birdy, Roland recalls his childhood in the '70s: growing up poor with a single mother, at school, he meets a boy who calls himself Birdy, who's unlike anyone he's ever known. The two become inseparable, with Roland an eager sidekick to Birdy and his pop-star dreams. But when Birdy gets his big break, Roland is bereft when he's left behind. They become estranged over the years, as one tours the world as a pop music sensation while the other struggles to chart a new path forward. But now, Birdy's imminent return to town is a chance for both of them to finally come to terms with their glorious yet troubled past. A funny and poignant novel about hero worship, heartbreak, and queer survival, An Evening with Birdy O'Day will remind you that you can never go home again - even if you've never left it in the first place.
