Details
Synopsis
New York novelist and journalist Amy Sohn crafts a hilarious set of caricatures depicting the often insignificant complexities which tangle the lives of the wives and mothers of Park Slope, Brooklyn. The ladies regularly convene in the playgrounds, cafés, and grocery co-ops for conversations which inevitably spiral into verbal competitions for discerning whose relatively luxurious life is the most stressful. The current moms all continue to dwell in their past identities--former lesbian, former Manhattanite, former Oscar-winning actress--though they are open to exploring new hobbies such as adultery and kleptomania.

Industry Reviews
"In her bitingly sarcastic...novel, Amy Sohn does for Park Slope what John Updike did for New England, and then some....If you're a fan of GOSSIP GIRL, SEX AND THE CITY or anything that features the fantasia of New York as its backdrop, the PROSPECT PARK WEST is for you."
(09/03/2009)
"PROSPECT PARK WEST is fast, funny, and trashy."
(09/13/2009)
"PROSPECT PARK WEST is escapism at its best. Reading it is like diving into a gossip column or tabloid magazine....[It] may be superficial and sensational, but that doesn't mean it's not a good time."
(10/06/2009)
"It's no wonder Sarah Jessica Parker has the hots for Amy Sohn's novel, set in the trendy Brooklyn neighborhood of Park Slope....This amusing satire seems HBO-ready with its steamy mix of sex, the city and competitive stroller moms."
