Résumé
For more than half a century, the red leather diary languished inside a steamer trunk. Rescued from a dumpster on Manhattan's Upper West Side, it found its way to Lily Koppel, a young writer, who opened its tarnished brass lock… and journeyed into an enthralling past. The diary painted a breathtaking portrait of a bygone New York by a headstrong, endearing teenager who filled its pages with her hopes, heartaches, and vivid recollections. Intrigued, Koppel followed her only clue, a frontispiece inscription, to its now ninety-year-old owner, Florence Wolfson. Florence, reunited with her diary, rediscovered a lost younger self burning with artistic fervor. Adult. Unrated
