For a small-town girl with big-city dreams, there is no address more glamorous than New York's Barbizon Hotel. Laura, a patrician beauty from Smith, arrives to work at Mademoiselle for the summer. Her hopelessly romantic roommate, Dolly, comes from a working-class upstate town to attend secretarial school. Vivian, a brash British bombshell with a disregard for the hotel's rules, rounds out the trio of friends. Together, the girls embark on a journey of discovery that will take them from the penthouse apartments of Park Avenue to the Beat scene of Greenwich Village to Atlantic City's Steel Pier — and into the arms of very different men who will alter their lives forever.Michael Callahan (1963- ) is a contributing editor at Vanity Fair and the author of the critically acclaimed novels SEARCHING FOR GRACE KELLY (2015) and THE NIGHT SHE WON MISS AMERICA (2017).
