**Overview:**
"City of Girls" by Elizabeth Gilbert is a historical fiction novel set in the summer of 1940. The story follows the life of nineteen-year-old Vivian Morris, who arrives in New York City with her suitcase and sewing machine, exiled by her despairing parents. Vivian's talents with a needle and her commitment to mastering the perfect hair roll may not have been sufficient for her sophomore year at Vassar, but they lead her to gainful employment at the Lily Playhouse, her unconventional Aunt Peg's Manhattan revue theatre.
At the Lily Playhouse, Vivian becomes the self-appointed seamstress, creating stunning outfits for the showgirls and transforming trash and tinsel into creations fit for goddesses. In the vibrant and bustling world of wartime New York City, Vivian and her girlfriends seize the opportunity to savor life to the fullest. They embrace the heady highs of city life, with all its pleasures and complexities.
When the legendary English actress Edna Watson arrives at the Lily Playhouse to star in the company's most ambitious show, Vivian is entranced by the magic that surrounds her. However, as Vivian navigates the glamorous world of the theatre, she learns hard lessons and makes regrettable mistakes. The story explores themes of identity, self-discovery, and the pursuit of living life authentically.
"City of Girls" is a celebration of women who refuse to conform to societal expectations and choose to live life on their own terms. It's a tale of resilience, growth, and the enduring friendships that shape one's journey.
