MORE TALES OF THE CITY
The tenants of 28 Barbary Lane have fled their cozy nest for adventures far afield.
Mary Ann Singleton finds love at sea with a forgetful stranger, Mona Ramsey discov-
ers her doppelganger in a desert whorehouse, and Michael Tolliver bumps into his
favorite gynecologist in a Mexican bar. Meanwhile, their venerable landlady takes
the biggest journey of all—without ever leaving home.
“As
difficult to put down as a plate of pistachios. The reader starts
playing the old childhood game of, ‘Just one more chapter, and I'll
turn out the light,’ only to look
up and discover it’s after midnight.”
- Los Angeles Times Book Review
“Remarkable…delectable, addictive.” - New York Times Book Review
