In "The Dud Avocado," Elaine Dundy revealed the life of a young
expatriate in Paris in all its hilarious and heartbreaking drama.
With "The Old Man and Me," she tackles the American girl in London,
a bit older, but certainly no wiser. Honey Flood (if that's her
real name) is determined to make the Soho scene, and she'll know
she's arrived when she snags its greatest prize, the literary star
C. D. McKee.
Set in an early sixties London that is just beginning to swing,
"The Old Man and Me "is populated by hipsters, pill-poppers,
literary upstarts, would-be bohemians, and titled divorcees
matching wits in smoky nightclubs and Mayfair flats. But by the
time Honey gets what she thinks she's after, she may find that the
world she was hell-bent on conquering has gotten the better of her.
Elaine Dundy knows her characters inside and out and renders them
with perfect pitch to create a story as funny as it is poignant.
