Reclusive literary legend M. M. "Mimi" Banning has been holed up in her Bel Air mansion for years. But after falling prey to a Bernie Madoff-style Ponzi scheme, she's flat broke. Now Mimi must write a new book for the first time in decades, and to ensure the timely delivery of her manuscript, her New York publisher sends an assistant to monitor her progress. The prickly Mimi reluctantly complies - with a few stipulations: no Ivy Leaguers or English majors. Must drive, cook, tidy. Computer whiz. Good with kids.

The narrator captured all the characters. Excellently. I am sad it ended. Some books are best read but thus one one is best heard. What fun.

It's 1994, and Adam, a drug addict from New York City, arrives at a kibbutz in Israel with a medieval sapphire brooch. To make up for a past crime, he needs to get the priceless heirloom to a woman his grandfather loved when he was a Holocaust refugee on the kibbutz 50 years earlier.

A terrific story that reminded me of my young adult adventures on a kibbutz and living in Israel. I would give it a higher rating but the audio version was not good. The reader mispronounced almost every Hebrew and Yiddish word (and other languages as well!). Even commonly known words. She obviously had no coaching at all. One is taken out of the story with every mispronounced word (sometimes it was just the inflections that rendered the word wrong). Read this book, don't listen to it.
