David Chelsea in Love

Chelsea, David

David Chelsea in Love is the hilariously true story of cartoonist and illustrator David Chelsea’s improbable love affair with Minnie, a would-be actress, in 1980s New York. Based in New York City, David meets Minnie on one of his frequent bus trips back (hey, the bus is cheap) to his hometown of Portland, Oregon to spawn. You see, David can’t get laid in New York. The only women he meets in New York are art directors—and they know exactly how much an illustrator is paid. But Minnie’s not easy. In fact she’s profoundly and comically difficult. She’s tall, gawky, absurdly neurotic and saddled with an abusive boyfriend. None of this matters to David who believes—against all reason—that Minnie is the only girl for him. This is the true story of their cross-country courtship, as well as the story of their idiosyncratic cast of friends and relatives. David Chelsea In Love is a strange and very funny look at the lives of the young, the talented, and the semi-talented in New York City’s East Village
