Midlife Crisis with Dick and Jane

Nin Andrews explodes the iconography of our childhoods as she creates a new series of Dick and Jane readers–this time earmarked for adults who desperately need a vocabulary for a different time. With edgy humor and deep understanding of the shadows we all cast, she gives us a Dick and Jane we can’t resist. The bizarre nature of the world she creates is what initially draws us in, but what keeps us there is our growing knowledge that it’s our world too. – Joyce Dyer
