| How The Frenetic Pace of Big City Life Impacts on a Small Town Girl. The inevitable conflict between country mouse and city mouse gets sophisticated treatment when a small town girl is carried away by her Prince Charming to the super- charged canyons of modern New York City. Warned by her uptight advertising executive husband to beware of strangers, the newlywed cannot repress her small town upbringing and instinctive innocence. She befriends many of the offbeat tenants in her apartment building and enters into their complicated and sometimes tragic lives and conflicts. Her gradual discovery of city ways and its crazy quilt mix of diverse people with competing agendas offer a compelling insight into the vast gulf between big city and small town life. Her journey from naivet? through disenchantment and eventual wisdom makes for a suspenseful story of a young woman?s inner turmoil and how culture shock can impact on deeply held values. A must read for those leaving the bucolic joys of small town life for the challenges and dangers of life in the big city. |
