The Perfect Elizabeth: A Tale of Two Sisters Schmais, Libby
Very Good.
Hardcover. 1st edition hardcover with dustjacket 2000 St. Martin's Press / Thomas Dunne Books. Superclean; no marks; pages bright; binding tight. Only light wear. 228 pages. Language: English. 'Composed of crisp, crumpet-sized snapshots, Schmais's winning romantic comedy tells the story of 30-something New York City sisters Eliza and Bette Ferber, who, when viewed as a composite, become the eponymously perfect Elizabeth. Eliza, otherwise known as Liza, a legal secretary who writes poetry on the side, has grown tired of her monotonous job and the commitment-phobic attitude of her actor boyfriend, Gregor. Meanwhile, academic-minded Bette has immersed herself in her dissertation on comfort foods in the English novel. Bette has been burned once already, and she prefers the nonthreatening world of Barbara Pym to real-life love. Worried that Bette will become like one of the lonely characters in the books she reads, Eliza embarks the duo on a round of singles parties and pilgrimages to a laptop-toting Jewish matchmaker in Queens. ... The Ferber sisters have a charming propensity for viewing the world through Masterpiece Theatre-tinted glasses, and readers will enjoy following their attempts to stop shooting for perfection and to learn to accept plain old happiness.'--Publishers Weekly, 2000. Keywords: contemporary literature, novelist, chick lit.
