" If Barbara Ucko s excellent dry wit
could be bottled and sold, irony would
not be in such lamentably short sup-
ply in the pages of American fiction.
Faster than a switchblade and just as
sharp, she s a natural comic talent."
--Washington Post Book World
"As a first-rate comic writer and docu-
mentarian of our parlous times and
changing customs, Ucko is an adorn-
ment to the literary scene. "
--Chicago Sun-Times
With her first novel, Family Trap-
pings, critics acclaimed Barbara Ucko
as America s new comic voice. In
Scarlett Greene, her position is firmly
established. Scarlett s story begins in
Georgia, where, as an overweight,
overworked teenager, she s been gulled
into taking care of her hypochondriac
mother and her disheveled, fumbling
father. Escape comes in the form of pre-
med courses at theUniversity of Wis- consin, where, in a less-than-perfect
blossoming into womanhood, Scarlett
grows up, thins out, and learns about
life. Her journey is told with Ucko s
unique sense of the absurd, her perfect
pitch for dialogue, and a vast, comic
vision of human relationships.
