Publisher Notes
Set in a retro microcosm of Manhattan, this novel follows a group of well-heeled male and female boarding school friends who extend their adolescence after graduation in a languorously glamorous lifestyle of nightclubs, cocktails, and cards. Simultaneous.

Industry Reviews
"Kate Goodenow is...such a type she scarcely seems real. Nevertheless, she's the axis on which Caitlin Macy's first novel spins....She's also something of a bore....Much of the time, Macy's characters say and do the most improbable things. It's hard to stifle the giggles...."
(06/04/2000)
"Macy's eye for the sparks that fly when her honed and not so honed sensibilities rub together is nearly unerring, and it's hard to imagine anyone more capable of writing, eventually, the quintessential chronicle that this novel is straining to become."
