Description
A joyous 40th anniversary edition of Barbara Trapido's coming-of-age novel. Eighteen-year-old Katherine, bright and stylish but frustratedly suburban, enters the world of the brilliant Jacob Goldman and his bohemian family. The Goldmans' rambling home, presided over by the beatific matriarch Jane, offers a haven from her own life. However, when a romantic entanglement ends in tears, Katherine is forced into exile from the family she loves most. Her journey back into their fold, after more than a decade away, yields all kinds of delightful surprises. This charming novel teems with life and features a true voice, making it a compelling read for many.
