In "a sprightly first novel" (John Updike, The New Yorker), "fluently written . . . (in) an engaging voice" (The New York Times Book Review), Schine introduces readers to a convalescent but effervescent heroine imprisoned in the confines of a Manhattan hospital who proves that there is sometimes hilarity in the depths of infirmity.

Stricken by a mysterious malady, college sophomore Alice Brody has suddenly lost the use of her legs. How does a bright, beautiful, and now immobile young woman proceed with her passions? As she convalesces in a Manhattan hospital, Alice finds herself attended by a motley group of visitors: indifferent nurses, doctors both good and bad, divorcing parents, and eccentric relatives. But Alice is a creature of many charms, whose wit can enchant those bearing even the worst bedside manner. With a captivating heroine of great comic depth, Alice in Bed is balm for whatever ails you.

Die drei Frauen von Westport: Roman (German Edition)
(Alter schützt vor Scheidung nicht »Als Joseph Weissmann ...)
Alter schützt vor Scheidung nicht »Als Joseph Weissmann sich von seiner Frau scheiden ließ, war er 78 Jahre alt, sie 75. Er sprach von ‚unüberbrückbaren Differenzen‘, was seine Frau Betty erstaunte: ‚Unüberbrückbare Differenzen? Natürlich gibt es unüberbrückbare Differenzen, aber was zum Teufel hat das mit einer Scheidung zu tun?‘« Es stellt sich heraus, dass die Differenzen auch einen Namen haben: Felicity. Ihr ist es zu verdanken, dass Betty aus ihrer New Yorker Wohnung in ein kleines Cottage in Westport ziehen muss. Doch sie ist nicht alleine: Ihre 49-jährige Tochter Miranda hat sich ihr berufliches Grab geschaufelt, und ein Tapetenwechsel kommt ihr gerade recht. Mirandas 51-jährige Schwester Annie hat eine Scheidung hinter sich, und ihre beiden Kinder sind erwachsen – was soll sie ohne Betty und Miranda in New York? Und so beginnt für die drei Weissmanns in Westport die abenteuerlichste Zeit ihres Lebens – mit einer neuen Liebe, einer halsbrecherischen Kajakfahrt und jeder Menge starker Cocktails!

The Three Weissmanns of Westport: A Novel
( A New York Times Best Seller A New York Times Book Revi...)
A New York Times Best Seller A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Betty Weissmann has just been dumped by her husband of forty-eight years. Exiled from her elegant New York apartment by her husband’s mistress, she and her two middle-aged daughters, Miranda and Annie, regroup in a run-down Westport, Connecticut, beach cottage. In Schine’s playful and devoted homage to Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility, the impulsive sister is Miranda, a literary agent entangled in a series of scandals, and the more pragmatic sister is Annie, a library director, who feels compelled to move in and watch over her capricious mother and sister. Schine’s witty, wonderful novel “is simply full of pleasure: the pleasure of reading, the pleasure of Austen, and the pleasure that the characters so rightly and humorously pursue….An absolute triumph” (The Cleveland Plain Dealer).
