Beschreibung des Verlags
Super-artsy New York playwright Liza is stuck in a rut. Her plays aren't paying the bills, and when her outspoken nature leads to the loss of her temp job, she's quickly running out of options. With her high artistic principles quickly casting George aside as arrogant and pretentious, Liza returns with relief to her artsy ways, only to discover she’s being kicked out of her apartment and her play has been sabotaged. Maybe it’s time she opened up her mind to the idea that not everything – or everyone – is quite what they first seem?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A Yale grad and frustrated playwright, Liza Weiler is a temp with attitude, answering phones for the feisty nuns of a New York convent. She is cautious when she meets Will Atherton, a second-year grad student interested in staging one of her plays. Will soon accepts an offer to be the subject of a reality TV series centering on struggling actors, which will bring her work exposure, but Liza's enthusiasm further fades as she watches Will butcher her work. Just when she thinks things can't get worse, she sprains her ankle, gets fired from the convent, and is invaded by her midwestern family, who settle in for a long Thanksgiving visit. There are several possible Mr. Rights, including an ER doc and a corporate takeover artist who smells "expensive," as Shanman's madcap debut unfolds in a New York rich with bawdy immediacy.
