An East Village Tenement in the Beatdown Mid-'70sNew Yorker Magazine Literary Parties, Downtown Punk BacchanalsLove, Music, Blood, and MadnessIn 1976, Savage Joy author Robert Dunn (Meet the Annas, Stations of the Cross) moved to New York City, scored a $90-a-month East Village apartment, and got hired at The New Yorker magazine. All life-changing good fortune, and the foundation of this novel, Dunn's most autobiographical yet. In Savage Joy the narrator, Cole Whitman, straddles his uptown literary world and the budding Lower Manhattan punk scene. When an apartment in his building at 340 East 11th Street opens up, musician Slater Martin moves in, sweeping Cole along into his CBGBs world. Also moving into 340 is Cole's elegant and mysterious literary editor pal Emily Prosser, whom Cole desires unrequitedly.Cole needs a girlfriend, Slater needs a new band, Emily needs a new life. Together the three of them, along with a fiery female drummer called Sailor and a dweeby bassist, Wendell Walter, get a new punk group going, named, by Cole, Savage Joy.What follows among the five of them is both joyful and savage, a feast of love, music, sex, violence, blood, and madness.
