{"product_id":"love-and-money-9781087915678","title":"Love and Money","description":"On a hot August day in 1956 in Greenwich Village. Tessa Castle, a struggling jazz singer with a traumatic past, opens her mailbox one day to find an envelope containing a wad of fifty-dollar bills, sent by an anonymous benefactor. Henry Wood, who fell in love with Tessa at first sight when she sang at his wedding four years ago, has been searching for her since his divorce. Leo Novak is an eccentric best-selling author suffering from a mysterious malady as well as writer's block. Robin Quigley, a private nurse looking for a husband, lives across the hall from Tessa. The lives of these four New Yorkers--all with their own difficult pasts--intertwine in a novel that encompasses the rise of rock \u0026amp; roll, Ike vs. Adlai, cardigan sweaters and white pumps, Yankee games on the radio, painting-by-numbers, the complications of family or lack of one, Dickens, Gershwin, twins, various wild coincidences, and-as promised by the title-those two elusive necessities, love and money.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kitty Burns Florey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Raven Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781087915678\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eFlorey, Kitty Burns:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Kitty Burns Florey is the author of twelve novels, including Solos, Souvenir of Cold Springs, Vigil for a Stranger, and, most recently, the historical novels The Writing Master and its sequel, Amity Street.
