The background is New York, the characters are in their twenties (or almost), and the theme, naturally is love. When the story begins, Nina is writing advertising copy in the grubby inner sanctum of a great department store and has just broken off her engagement to a pompous young phony. By page 20 she has fallen in love with Julien, a mysterious older man. All the important adventures are with him. There are, however some hilarious episodes with Missy LeRoy, the Dragon lady of department-store advertising; with Nina's best friend, Diane (an apprentice delinquent with a marshmallow heart); and the exotic inhabitants of a rented mansion on Long Island. But beneath the laughter there is the wry and tender story of what happened to Nina, who wanted to be in love, and to Julien, who didn't.
