Five Women

Five Women

Five stories from five unforgettable characters, brought to life by an author the Washington Post hailed as â€œcontemporaryâ€¦rewardingâ€¦masterful.â€
Â
Five friends meet weekly at a restaurant called Yellowbird on New Yorkâ€™s Upper East Side, revealing the long-hidden secrets of their pasts and how each, in her fashion, has become a survivor beyond all expectations.
Â
The women are Gara, a divorced psychologist and cancer survivor; Felicity, a beautiful attorney married to a rich but controlling man; Kathryn, who is haunted by the brutality of her parentsâ€™ marriage; Eve, an unabashedly narcissistic actress; and Billie, a former rock star, now owner of Yellowbird.
Â
Told with Jaffeâ€™s signature liveliness and uncanny understanding of female friendship, Five Women invites us to the table to hear stories both familiar and unthinkable, stories of struggle, heartbreak, survival and redemption.
