Description

At eighty, Jenny is the baby, the youngest of four surviving sisters of a large Jewish family, the Witkovskys. She has reluctantly left New England, which she loves, to travel to Miami (she thinks of it as "Their-ami"), summoned by her eccentric sister Flora, who at eighty-five still chases men. Their sister Naomi is dying of cancer at ninety, and Eva is fading away simply because she is ninetyfive. The sisters quarrel as they always did, railing at and forgiving each other. Even so, "Why can't we live forever?" one of them asks.
