“Funny, full of great energy, serious without, thank god, taking itself too seriously.”

Peter Orner, author of Am I Alone Here?, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award

“A truly original debut novel—a story that is multi-layered, multi-generational and downright hysterical. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll never want to leave your front row seat as the delightful drama unfolds.”

Dylan Massin, television director and producer of NBC’s Parenthood

My name is Francie Arenson Dickman and I’m a writer. At first, I wrote in journals to entertain myself. Then I wrote letters to friends, old-fashioned pen and paper letters, to entertain them. Now I write essays and novels to entertain you. Spend a few minutes in my world and maybe you’ll forget about your own…or even better, maybe my world will remind you of your own, and you’ll relate.
