A fantastic story of Vivian Morris' life. Who is Vivian? Well, she is a fantastic seamstress who worked for her aunt Peg who owned a small theater in New York City. She grew up there, discovering all the things a nice girl should not do. Her family would/did heartily disapprove of her life style. But as time goes on, she learns a lot about her self and others. Now she is ninety-five and telling her life story to Angela, the daughter of the only man she ever loved. Frank knew her brother in the war but he was so injured that he now can't tolerate the human touch. He is anxious and can't sit still. He is a beat cop because it is the only thing he can do that keeps him outside and moving. Frank and Vivian are not lovers but they are friends...something they value much more than a physical relationship. I was not expecting to like this book as much as I did. Blair Brown is the perfect narrator and the audio book is well paced and a total pleasure.
