The Other Side of Nice - by Gailanne Grosso (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

"Some of today's pop novelists can be relied upon to serve up a steady supply of the kind of zip and zing -- the snappy, wicked wit -- that can make it easier to get through the day. To others we turn for the deeper insights and human feeling we need to get through life. Somehow GailanneGrosso, in THE OTHER SIDE OF NICE, manages to deliver royally on both counts. We start the book thinking we're popping pistachios, and end up realizing we've just polished off a gourmet meal of sublime delicacy." -Bruce Bawer, literary critic, social commentator, author of A Place at the Table, While Europe Slept and Surrender. "SHE has become my best friend, my alter ego, the one I want to turn to at 3 AM when I am scared and confused. SHE is who I want to run through fire with and will when this place starts to burn. She is who we have all been waiting for. Gailanne Grosso has given us the next important voice in literature. Ms. Grosso writes the way we think and wish we could write/say/ behave and she does it in a style that is new and yet thousands of years old. SHE is wise and wary. SHE is miraculous. Read this now or you will regret not reading it forever." -Jamie Lee Curtis
