This is the first introduction I have had to Olivia Brown and at times I like her, most of the time she strikes me as drunken slut that will sleep with anyone.
Set in the Bohemian community of Greenwich Village during Prohibition little work is completed by anyone but a lot of gin is consumed. Miss Brown is a poet, of some reckoning, that has a taste for drink. The story opens and ends with drinking and in between is a murder, some mystery, cops, robbers, thugs, and gangs.
The writing is good, I just have no love of the characters.
I finished it six months after I bought it if that says anything about my feelings.
