Boston launch party for her debut novel
CONFESSIONS OF A NERVOUS SHIKSA
Thursday, September 8, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.
Armani Café
214 Newbury Street (between Exeter and Fairfax)
Alexis Manning is a movie publicist with a broken heart, a sick cat, inner religious struggles and a debilitating addiction to movies. When her engagement to her Jewish leading man ends with a conversion ultimatum, she’s forced to re-consider her carefully scripted life and start over. Her job promoting movies — her true religion — is the only thing holding her world together. Meanwhile, Lex’s younger sister Molly is living in San Francisco and is also freshly un-betrothed, suffering her own breakup blues without the benefit of sunshine and movie stars. When Molly decides to move in with Alexis, the two displaced sisters navigate the worlds of Hollywood, dating, work, family, pets and roommate struggles together. Naturally, nothing quite turns out the way Lex planned . . .
Okay. I don’t know Tracy and I haven’t read her book but one of my favorite people in the world sent me this event listing and so I’m posting it here because if my friend Joan Jolley likes this book, it’s got to be good. So, if you’re in Boston, go on and check it out.
