Prospect Park West: A Novel

e-book


In Amy Sohnā€™s smart, sexy, satirical peek into the bedrooms and hearts of Prospect Park West, the lives of four women come together during one long, hot Brooklyn summer.

The lives of these four Brooklynite women look basic on the outsideā€”but inside, each woman feels a building frustration with life that could burst any second. Frustrated Oscar-winning actress Melora Leigh, eager to relieve the pressures of raising her adopted toddler, feels the seductive pull of kleptomania; Rebecca Rose, missing her formerly robust sex life, begins a dangerous flirtation with handsome neighborhood celebrity Lizzi Oā€™Donnell, so-called "former" lesbian, wonders what draws her to women despite her sexy husband and adorable baby; and Karen Bryan Shapiro consumes herself with a powerful obsession that is sure to complete her perfect lifeā€”snagging the ultimate three-bedroom apartment in a well-maintained, P.S. 321ā€“zoned co-op building. As the womenā€™s paths intertwined (and sometimes collide), each must struggle to keep her man, her sanity...and her playdates.
