In Amateur: Volume Thirteen, Meghan McDonnell moves to Los Angeles with her husband to pursue an acting career. She muses on identity and sense of place while waiting tables and taking classes, seeking to understand LA with its mythic promises and gritty realities. Along the way, she meets fellow actors, observes the implications of culture and class systems, skinny dips in the Pacific Ocean on a rainy night with strangers, and experiences the rush and heartache of following an uncertain path.
With searing candor, McDonnell distills daily life with uncommon humor and honesty. In brilliant, lyrical prose she brings depth and illumination to themes of family, friendship, ambition, love, redemption, and identity to reveal a detailed glimpse of the universal. Her powerful observations and deeply felt insights about the human condition, struggles and transcendence included, reveal a courageous woman holding up a light in the thick of life as it happens.
