5.0 out of 5 stars
Want to read a book about real lesbians? This is it.
There are so few books which really do New York justice the way this one does. And as for representing lesbian lives-- this book goes places "Ellen" and other yuppie-oriented projects wouldn't dare venture. Schulman is at her best in this novel: funny, poignant, thrilling, and sexy.

Not Schulman's best.
As with so many first novels, this one is derivative. Although it has some elements that become Schulman staples, Schulman really comes into her own with her second book, After Delores.

Love this book,

This review is from: Sophie Horowitz Story (Paperback)
Schulman creates a fine character in Sophie Horowitz, a narrator with a distinctive, singular voice. What I love best about Schulman's work is already evident in this early novel. She is a genius at sentence making: "Anyone who pays that much attention to detail spent an hour getting ready, which means they had an hour and decided to spend it getting ready."
