Glass Bottle Season

Raymond Wilson-Domingo has never felt entirely comfortable among the elitist crowd of Newport's old money aristocracy. Partly it has to do with his being Cuban, and partly from his modest upbringing in the city's undesirable Fifth Ward neighborhood. But this summer, his job at a boutique wine shop, a lobster theft, a misguided plan to become a lawyer, an exclusive beach club, an ill-timed car crash, the Moon View mansion's mysterious and controversial new resident, and a doomed romance with the doyenne of Newport (not to mention the impending Campbell-Doheny wedding and all of the money, gossip, and drama which surrounds it) will collide, casting the differences between Ray and his peers in high relief. He will do everything he can to cement himself permanently among New England's most elite social circles. Freshly graduated from college and unsure what the fall will bring, the end of the summer looms on his horizon, inciting in Ray a fear that by September, social and economic realities will sunder his relationships and terminate his inclusion in the glitzy world to which he has briefly--almost accidentally--gained access.
