Summary | New York City, 1953. Louise Leithauser has filed some of the best pieces at her boyfriend Joe's brand new literary magazine, Downtown-- albeit under a male pseudonym. On the side she's writing a science fiction romance, The Lunar Housewife. When she overhears Joe and his business partner fighting about listening devices and death threats, Louise discovers that Downtown's strings are being pulled by someone who doesn't want artists or writers criticizing Uncle Sam. When she has an opportunity to conduct an interview with America's most famous living author, Ernest Hemingway, Louise is forced to consider her future sooner than she planned. |
