Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This "tale of delicious revenge" ( USA Today ) is also "a punchy little comedy of manners. Think Jane Austen in the Catskills" ( Chicago Tribune ). It's 1962 and all across America barriers are collapsing. But when Natalie Marx's mother inquires about summer accommodations in Vermont, she gets the following reply: The Inn at Lake Devine is a family-owned resort, which has been in continuous operation since 1922. Our guests who feel most comfortable here, and return year after year, are Gentiles. For twelve-year-old Natalie, who has a stubborn sense of justice, the words are not a rebuff but an infuriating, irresistible challenge. In this beguiling novel, Elinor Lipman charts her heroine's fixation with a small bastion of genteel anti-Semitism, a fixation that will have wildly unexpected consequences on her romantic life. As Natalie tries to enter the world that has excluded her--and succeeds through the sheerest of accidents-- The Inn at Lake Devine becomes a delightful and provocative romantic comedy full of sparkling social mischief.
