Full description for The New Yorkers
A "New York Times Book Review "Editors' Choice Inspired by her account in "The New Yorker" of adopting a profoundly troubled dog named Buster, acclaimed author Cathleen Schine's "The New Yorkers "is a brilliantly funny story of love, longing, and overcoming the shyness that leashes us. On a quiet little block near Central Park, five lonely New Yorkers find one another, compelled to meet by their canine companions. Over the course of four seasons, they emerge from their apartments, in snow, rain, or glorious sunshine to make friends and sometimes fall in love. A love letter to a city full of surprises, "The New Yorkers "is an enchanting comedy of manners (with dogs!) from one of our most treasured writers.
