Opis

Mitchell Sperruzzi is three months out of grad-school. Three months out of his mother's house. Three months on his own. And he is three months unemployed. Three months of nothing 'til he becomes a Garbage Man. Well, a Rubbish Remover, to be more exact. A high-end all-inclusive estate/apartment/house cleanout service in the 5-boros of New York City where Mitchell's knee-deep uncovering secrets of those who have lived-those who have made it-and those who have hoarded themselves in the greatest City in the Modern World-all the while befriending Pawn Brokers, Scrap Dealers, and anyone willing to buy an antique or two or some brass or some copper or some anything worth anything at all. Significant Lives is a slice-of-life thrill taking the reader alongside Mitchell and his co-workers-taking the trip right on in the small dump-truck with the boys-as Mitchell not only uncovers of the significance of the lives of those who owned the homes he cleans out-but Mitchell also uncovers the significance of his own life, no matter how small, in such a large city.
