![]() ![]() That phase of her life comes to a swift end when her parents send her to Manhattan to live with her Aunt Peg. "I cannot fully recall what I'd been doing with my time during those many hours that I ought to have spent in class, but-knowing me-I suppose I was terribly preoccupied with my appearance." Vivian is very pretty, and she is a talented seamstress, but other than that, she is a silly, naïve girl who doesn't know anything about anything. At 19, she has just been sent home from Vassar. The delightful narrator of Gilbert's ( Big Magic, 2015, etc.) fourth novel begins the story of her life in the summer of 1940. Someone told Vivian Morris in her youth that she would never be an interesting person. ![]()
