ByPublisher Description
The Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Ethan Frome explores the longings and regrets of two spinster sisters in Gilded Age New York City.
In a basement shop on a side street near Manhattan’s Stuyvesant Square, sisters Ann Eliza and Evelina Bunner sell artificial flowers and various hand-sewn articles for women.

Things soon change after Ann Eliza buys Evelina a birthday present, and a bachelor clockmaker enters their world . . .
