The Ladies Man by
Elinor Lipman
Thirty years ago Harvey Nash failed to show up at his
engagement party, jilting Adele Dobbins. Adele shortly got over Harvey,
chalking him up to a heartless cad. Adele and her two sisters, Lois and
Kathleen, shared a townhouse, joking about their “spinsterhood.” One cold April
night Harvey Nash rang their doorbell. He has remade himself into Nash Harvey,
now a successful advertising jingle writer—and still unmarried. Hoping to make
amends, he asks to see Adele, but she refuses to see him. Adele is interested
in her boss at the public tv station where she works. Kathleen, who owns an
upscale lingerie boutique, goes for coffee with Lorenz, the building’s doorman.
Divorced Lois hopes that Harvey really left Adele because he was secretly in
love with her, and he is returning to finally declare his love. Clever and
witty, Lipman’s book’s are populated with characters you would like to have as
friends and relatives.
