"A sprightly novel. Schine has a real caricaturist's flair." --John Updike, The New Yorker

"Schine has a knack for seeing the reality hiding behind eccentric behavior and for laughing when she might just as easily be in tears....Hilarious!" --Newsweek

"Alice in Bed is so exceptionally funny and beguiling." --The Philadelphia Inquirer

"A fluent writer...an engaging voice...We go on reading briskly because we want to know Alice better." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

Reseña del editor

Stricken by a mysterious malady, college sophomore Alice Brody has suddenly lost the use of her legs. How does a bright, beautiful, and now immobile young woman proceed with her passions? As she convalesces in a Manhattan hospital, Alice finds herself attended by a motley group of visitors: indifferent nurses, doctors both good and bad, divorcing parents, and eccentric relatives. But Alice is a creature of many charms, whose wit can enchant those bearing even the worst bedside manner. With a captivating heroine of great comic depth, Alice in Bed is balm for whatever ails you.
