Description

Rosemary and Evelyn met a hundred thousand years ago in Central Park when their children were barely born. Somewhere Fun reunites the two women thirty-five years later on Madison Avenue, one windy fall day. With their children now grown and the world changing rapidly before (whats left of) their eyes, each finds herself face to face with the terrors, joys, and surprises of life and time. Somewhere Fun is a wildly original story about connection to our families, our memories, our moment in time.

Reviews

'Schwartz is a real talent and she is trying something ambitious - In [her] very modern way, [she is] making a rather old-fashioned case for the power of the written word.' New York Times
