A big and big-hearted novel --- one enthralling, transformative year in the life of a child actor coming of age in a bygone Manhattan, from the critically acclaimed author of MR. PEANUT.

“In the fall of 1980, when I was 14, a friend of my parents named Naomi Shah fell in love with me. She was 36, a mother of two, and married to a wealthy man. Like so many things that happened to me that year, it didn’t seem strange at the time.”

Less a bildungsroman than a story of miseducation, PLAYWORLD is a novel of epic proportions, bursting with laughter and heartache. Adam Ross immerses us in the life of Griffin and his loving (yet disintegrating) family while seeming to evoke the entirety of Manhattan and the ethos of an era --- with Jimmy Carter on his way out and a B-list celebrity named Ronald Reagan on his way in. Surrounded by adults who embody the age’s excesses --- and who seem to care little about what their children are up to --- Griffin is left to himself to find the line between youth and maturity, dependence and love, acting and truly grappling with life.
