This charming . . . short account of ordinary goingson in a French caf explores love, work, loneliness, and aging as it follows the daily life of a middleaged Parisian bartender (Lemony Snicket)Pierre is a veteran bartender in a caf in the outskirts of Paris. He observes his customers as they come and gothe young man who drinks beer as he reads Primo Levi, the fellow who from timetotime strips down and plunges into the nearby Seine, the few regulars who eat and drink there on creditsizing them up with great accuracy and empathy. Pierre doesnt look outside more than necessary; he prefers to let the world come to him.Soon, however, the caf must close its doors, and Pierre finds himself at a loss. As we follow his stream of thoughts over three days, Pierres humanity and profound solitude both emerge. The Waitress Was New is a moving portrait of human anguish and weakness, of understated nobility and strength.
