In Elaine Kraf's witty, sardonic novel The Princess of 72nd Street, The Princess Esmeralda is sure of her royalty, her seizures of 'radiance, ' and her domain-Manhattan's 72nd Street from Central Park West to Riverside Drive. On the other hand, Ellen has trouble coping with an ex-lover, his psychiatrist, an ex-husband, dining out, putting just one color on her canvases at a time, and trying to keep a radiant Esmeralda from being arrested.

reviewed The Princess of 72nd Street on July 14, 2012 The Princess of 72nd Street
Stop. Stop what you're doing. Go and get this book. The best since Jean Rhys, which means she's virtually unknown and that's a crime. When your Oprah Book Club feminine agonistes were memoiring their way through the Iowa Writers Workshop, Elaine Kraf was writing the real thing. Cast Jane Smiley into a lake of fire. Read this. 118 goddamn pages that seem like an eternity, and not in some mundane sense. A high and beautiful wave of psychosis crests over 118 pages, and we are left in the shallows. The protagonist - never a false step. Never an untrue assertion by Kraf. Please read this and know, in Flann O'Brien's words, "what it *feels* like...to be inadequate, afraid."
