Summary

In a New York City Steakhouse, an aging career waiter -- jokingly nicknamed "Hero" -- moves with numbed silence through his litany of service. Surrounded by manipulative bosses and a backstabbing, wisecracking crew -- the Bolivian, Castro the Cuban, Hussein, Frankenstein, and young Andy, the incompetent newcomer who becomes his charge -- Hero is a unique figure, once a successful college graduate but now a down-and-out loner whose alcoholic past haunts him, and who must risk an old man's precarious all to win honor in his restaurant world. "This brilliant short novel comes to a close, leaving readers with a silence that holds a hint of a smile" (New Orleans Times-Picayune).
