What is Crossing Brooklyn ferry : a novel about?
Escaping the narrow, wealthy life she led in Manhattan, Zoe Finney moves her family to a beautiful old brownstone on a working-class street in Park Slope. A poor girl who has married into money, Zoe finds comfort and familiarity in the close-knit neighborhood. She hopes the change will reinvigorate her profoundly depressed husband and provide a happy place for her small daughter, Rose, to grow. But her arrival in the neighborhood alters the lives around her. The handsome schoolteacher next door, Keevan O'Connor, is deeply drawn to her, and despite Zoe's initial hesitation, they begin to fall in love. Rose is thrilled, recognizing in Keevan the warm, fun-loving father hers can never be. But others don't want this relationship to thrive: Keevan's unhappily married sister-in-law, Patty, who has secretly fallen in love with him, and Zoe's husband, who wakes from his depression to see his wife slipping away. Can Zoe leave behind her ill husband for a chance at happiness with the man who seems her perfect match?
