Henry is a lawyer, an old-fashioned man, gay, successful, lonely. Thalia is now twenty-nine, an actress-hopeful, estranged from her newly widowed eccentric mother--Denise, Henry's ex. Hoping it will lead to better things for her career, Thalia agrees to pose as the girlfriend of a horror-movie luminary who is down on his romantic luck. When Thalia and her complicated social life move into the basement of Henry's Upper West Side townhouse, she finds a champion in her long-lost father, and he finds new life--and maybe even new love--in the commotion.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eLipman, Elinor:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - ELINOR LIPMAN is the award-winning author of eleven novels, including \u003ci\u003eThe View from Penthouse B \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Inn at Lake Devine\u003c\/i\u003e; one essay collection, \u003ci\u003eI Can't Complain\u003c\/i\u003e; and \u003ci\u003eTweet Land of Liberty: Irreverent Rhymes from the Political Circus\u003c\/i\u003e.
