Özet

It's 1922 in the Manhattan of gin, jazz and prosperity. Women wear makeup and hitched hemlines - and enjoy a new freedom to vote and work. Not so for Evelyn Lockhart, who is forbidden from pursuing her passion to become one of the first female doctors. Chasing her dream will mean turning her back on her family: her competitive sister, Viola; her conservative parents; and the childhood best friend she is expected to marry, Charlie.

In a desperate attempt to support herself through Columbia University's medical school, Evie auditions for the infamous late-night Ziegfeld Follies on Broadway. But if she gets the part, what will it mean for her fledgling relationship with Upper East Side banker Thomas Whitman - a man Evie thinks she could fall in love with, if only she lived a life less scandalous?

Natasha Lester’s novels are always full of such credible and lovable characters! I never want to finish the book as they begin to feel like great friends!

Such a Beautiful and Powerful Story

A beautiful story and a well crafted novel, with characters I really cared about. It has everything; the glitz and glamour of the 20s, the struggle for young women of the time ~ who, as Scott Fitzgerald wrote, had Victorian mothers ~ to decide their own fate, and some exquisitely tender moments that really moved me. Kelly Burke’s narration is pitch perfect, bringing it all to life. She managed to convey the heart of the story directly to my emotions in such a way that at times I forgot I was listening to someone else’s voice.

Exquisite writing, exquisite reading

I liked the historical and feminist aspects of this novel, about a bright young woman who wants to be an obstetrician, back in 1920s New York when it was virtually unheard of for a woman to attend medical school. I don't know how historically accurate the novel is, but I found it quite gripping. The parts about the Follies were a bit ridiculous, but otherwise the book was very enjoyable, and I wanted to keep listening to past my train stop.

More than your average chick lit
