Audrey knows she doesn’t want to be the old lady with cats. But when she buys herself an iguana for her fifty-fifth birthday, she doesn’t expect that this simple act is the beginning of a voyage of self-rediscovery. Neither does she imagine that her next-door neighbor, a recent widower struggling with the demons of his past, will somehow figure in that journey. Along the way, the moments of angst are well-balanced with moments of humor and fun.
With today’s political environment as a backdrop, Giorgio shows us how youthful passions flame and subside, to be replaced by mature insight; how each individual’s life experience shapes how they deal with the world; and how Love and caring are a partnership and not a competition. Readers of up-market Women’s Fiction will likely also enjoy this novel.
Sublime Line: “Giorgio’s love of language shines in this poignant and thoughtful examination of the nature of relationships, the universal need for companionship, and the meaning of feminism in today’s world.”
