The depression was winding down, WWII hadn't begun. Women had left their flapper personas behind and were making their way in the world, more independently than ever. Set in New York, the story is about a woman reflecting back on that year, a turning point in her life, the people she meets, the decisions she makes (and those that are made for her.)
It is a glamorous and gritty time about Manhattann long before Sex & the City - yet in a way, full of the same sort of stories.

Thanks for the recommendation. I'm always looking for good fiction.
I'll have to look for it, assuming it's available in a dead tree edition. The last few books I've read have been rather disappointing; I need a change of pace.
All right -- it's available as both paper and e book at my library -- a wait for both. What to do?
