Everything you need to understand or teach Nothing Special by Nicole Flattery.
In Nicole Flattery’s novel Nothing Special, Mae, a young woman in New York, begins working as a typist at Andy Warhol’s famous studio, the Factory. As she and a new friend, Shelley, transcribe recordings of Warhol and his admirers, Mae’s perception of reality—and of Shelley—begins to irrevocably change. Over the course of the narrative, Flattery explores themes of authenticity, art, and the difficulties of true connection.
