The Dime Museum  by Joyce Hinnefeld

award-winning author of In Hovering Flight and Stranger Here Below


The lives of a vaudevillian male impersonator, a Vietnam vet turned gardener, an aimless poet, a German violinist, and a disaffected feminist scholar, ex-pats, nurses, nannies, and heart-worn mothers intersect in surprising ways. In the end, the youngest of them are left to face the daunting and ongoing wake of the twentieth century.

"How beautifully knit The Dime Museum is—as soon as I finished it, I went right back to the beginning, to see the full span of it and to put together the wonderful complications of the characters.  

     A vibrant, terrific novel." — Joan Silber
