Karen Abbott





Another Karen Abbott book will debut next week, the story of Gypsy Rose Lee, so thought we better read her first novel, Sin in the Second City : Madams, Ministers, Playboys and the Battle for America's Soul...the story of Brothel owners in Chicago in the early 1900's. I'm hoping we will all find an interest in this one - might be some porn for Phyl, history for me, probably some infectious disease for Chris, etc. Ms. Abbott also has an interesting website for her books. Check out the site for the one we are about to read at http://www.sininthesecondcity.com/home.html I found these books in the 'NYTimes Books' gadget in the sidebar.
