“In this glorious once upon a time fairytale come true, two beautiful college debs from Iowa make it to New York City, end up working at Tiffany’s and living the dream of every career girl of the 1940’s Marjorie Hart’s charming and delicious account of her most memorable summer captures a time when women had moxie, wore proper hats and gloves and burned with ambition to make it in the big city. I loved every moment!” -Adriana Trigiani, author of Very Valentine

New York City, 1945. While the war winds down in Europe and the Pacific, coeds Marjorie Jacobsen and her best friend, Marty, arrive fresh from the Kappa House at the University of Iowa for a summer filled with culture, adventure, and temporary work. Turned away from the top department stores, they miraculously find jobs as pages at Tiffany’s, becoming the first women to ever work on the sales floor—a diamond-filled day job that was the envy of all their friends.
