Editorial Reviews

From the Inside Flap

Maiden Serenade is the absorbing story of Marisa Rubin, a beautiful young New Yorker just out of college with a loving family, a devoted boyfriend, and a bright future ahead of her. Then she meets Pablo Blinder, an emotional aspiring artist with grand ambitions and an unyielding determination to win her heart. This result is this mesmerizing novel that captures the sweet timelessness of young love and the sparkling wonder of contemporary New York.

As the novel's heroine embarks on her tranquil trip to self-discovery amid the world of elegance and grandeur that is the Empire City, the reader is swept away in a celebration of beauty and of life, of faith and of family, of romance and of love. Brilliantly structured and skillfully written, Maiden Serenade presents New York from Lincoln Center to Wall Street to Fifth Avenuewith a casual lyricism reminiscent of F. Scott Fitzgerald. The moguls and the magnates, the socialites and the artistes who move through the pages of the book inhabit a city that is at once both exciting and thoroughly magnificent, and which has not found literary expression in a manner so appropriate for some time. What J.D. Salinger did for the boarding school students of the fifties, Maiden Serenade does for the postgraduate kids of the nineties.
