Janey

"Edgy, cynical, and shamelessly self-centered, Janey is a 46-year-old artist with an aversion to all things female, especially motherhood. When her husband announces on their twenty-fourth wedding anniversary that he wants a divorce, she moves into her studio, an empty warehouse in Boston's South End, but her already disjointed life is made still more chaotic when she gets a call from her estranged sister. The family's long-vacant, Depression-era hotel is to be sold, and all their parent possessions must be disposed of. To complicate matters, Janey meets Bugs, an aging disc jockey on an oldies station in Schenectady, and ends up sharing quarters with him in the deserted hotel. Thus begin Janey's strange 'twelve labors,' a series of spiritual and emotional trials that will challenge her previously unshakable conviction that she is not an ordinary mortal, but a 'prince'"--
