"Mosby's manner of representation...sometimes teeters on the edge of caricature; to her credit, it seldom slips over....[T]here is so much to enjoy in THE SEASON OF LILLIAN DAWES that it seems pointless to dwell on its faults. The period color, the depiction of a long-vanished New York, is exquisite....Mosby recreates such scenes lovingly and with a meticulous attention to language that betrays her origins as a poet....Mosby writes good social comedy, but THE SEASON OF LILLIAN DAWES is more than that--although it's something less than the high-flying heart-twister it aims to be."Mosby, Katherine is the author of 'Season of Lillian Dawes', published 2003 under ISBN 9780060936952 and ISBN 0060936959.
