Lush Life is a collection of short stories that range from the adventures and creative play of girls dreaming in 1970s Brooklyn to the wanderings and aspirations of a poet in the fairylike forests of Finland. These stories will appeal to adult readers of all ages and gender that enjoy New York City stories as well as stories that capture the adventures and aspirations of dreamers and drifters, poets, artists, and near-do-wells wandering or at play in Brooklyn, Spain and Italy, and even as far away as the foggy forests of Finland.
