A slyly subversive bildungsroman that presents a brutal portrait of misplaced love, by the author of lauded Nothing Can Hurt You
After dropping out of college, a young woman wanders through New York both invisible and vulnerable, studying the city's strong magic and longing for a man she knows will never love her back. She thinks she finds salvation when Charlotte Herzfeld, the young wife of a successful businessman, hires her as a live-in nanny to accompany the family on their trip to Berlin.
As the Herzfelds begin to crack under the weight of their secrets, she finds herself in a more precarious position than ever before.
Other Women by Nicola Maye Goldberg is a compelling narrative about the complexities of identity and desire within the glamour and anonymity of modern city life.
