Description
Generous-hearted and wickedly funny, You Made Me Love You is the story of three appealing sisters who each face life-altering decisions about love, work, ambition, and family. “Make it in Hollywood” is Estelle Zarr's mantra. She's made it to Hollywood, but she's still far from her dream of becoming a celebrated film editor. Her sister Erica is in New York, where she has flailed from one enthusiasm to another. She's currently writing and living with a major New York novelist, but Erica is finding little comfort in the literary salon. Meanwhile in Toronto, Jessie's perfect life, set in stone at age twenty-one when she married a doctor and then had two children, is beginning to crumble. As hilarious as it is poignant, You Made Me Love You brings a fresh eye to modern women's lives.
