From the incomparable Jonathan Lethem, a raucous romantic farce that explores the paradoxes of love and artLucinda Hoekke spends eight hours a day at the Complaint Line, listening to anonymous callers air their random grievances. Most of the time, the work is excruciatingly tedious. But one frequent caller, who insists on speaking only to Lucinda, captivates her with his offcolor ruminations and opaque selfreflections. In blatant defiance of the rules, Lucinda and the Complainer arrange a facetoface meetingand fall desperately in love.Consumed by passion, Lucinda manages only to tear herself away from the Complainer to practice with the alternative band in which she plays bass. The lead singer of the band is Matthew, a confused young man who works at the zoo and has kidnapped a kangaroo to save it from ennui. Denise, the drummer, works at No Shame, a masturbation boutique. The bands talented lyricist, Bedwin, conflicted about the groups asyetnonexistent fame, is suffering from writers block. Hoping to recharge the bands creative energy, Lucinda suggests some of the Complainers philosophical musings to Bedwin. When Bedwin transforms them into brilliant songs, the band gets its big break, including an invitation to appear on L.A.s premiere alternative radio show. The only problem is the Complainer. He insists on joining the band, with disastrous consequences for all.Brimming with satire and sex, You Dont Love Me Yet is a funny and affectionate sendup of the alternative band scene, the city of Los Angeles, and the entire genre of romantic comedy, but remains unmistakably the work of the inimitable Jonathan Lethem.
