City Of Girls by Elizabeth Gilbert
The novel is a captivating exploration of the life of Vivian Morris, a young woman who arrives in 1940s New York City with a tarnished college record and little direction. Thrust into the vibrant world of a quirky theater company, Vivian is swept up in a whirlwind of showbiz, glamour, and adventure. As she navigates relationships, scandal, and self-discovery, the story unfolds through her reflections as an older woman, offering a poignant look at the intersection of youth, freedom, and the complexities of female sexuality. The narrative is both a love letter to a bygone era and a deeply personal journey of a woman finding her place in a rapidly changing world.
