Bob Goes to Jail

Rob Sedgwick's Bob Goes to Jail is a no-holds-barred Patrick Melrose novel with an American sensibility.
Rob was born into a famous New England family and famously screwed up. In 1989 he was caught with an incriminating hoard of marijuana by the DEA in his Upper West Side apartment, and charged with possession and distribution. Bob Goes to Jail follows Rob as he prepares for the trial and explores his childhood and early adulthood through a series of intimate, and sometimes dark, vignettes of privilege and debauchery.
