Publisher Description

What if presidential widow Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis had lived long enough to become a reclusive eccentric like her first cousin "Little Edie" Beale of "Grey Gardens" fame?

In this "lost comic gem" -- published for the first time in thirty-four years – the author of the legendary Tales of the City series speculates wildly on Jackie O's future in the distant, almost unimaginable year of 1999.

As usual, Maupin's tone is both bittersweet and achingly funny in this tale of a post-catastrophic San Francisco and a young man's resilient love for his mother.
