Dear Reader, In my new novel, DON’T MAKE A SCENE, I wanted to explore how the movies shape and haunt us. Diane Kurasik has seen all the classic films at the Greenwich Village revival theater she runs. Still single in a world of couples, Diane is reminded daily of how her life has not conformed to script. When she receives an eviction notice on the eve of her 40th birthday, her life is upended. In the pursuit of both the elusive apartment and a leading man, she tangles with a likely candidate who doesn’t want the role, and gains an unexpected admirer who doesn’t fit the profile. What would Ingrid Bergman do? “A funny, smart, and beautifully written homage to movies, New York, love, and all the other things that make life tolerable.” Gary Shteyngart, author of ABSURDISTAN “A frothy, witty delight that surprises you into frequent sharp fits of laughter.” Alice Eliot Dark, author of IN THE GLOAMING Meanwhile: Are you a fan of classic movies?
