NOTES

Read by the author

Humorous, poignant, and honest, No Place Like Home is the story of one woman's journey to feel settled without settling, and her realization that home is much more than an address. Brooke Berman moved to New York as a wide-eyed eighteen-year-old eager to call the big city home. Candid, funny, and thoughtful, in No Place Like Home, we follow Brooke's adventures as she crisscrosses town trying to make ends meet and make her dreams of a life in the theater come true. With each apartment, from the heavenly to the horrible, she learns more about how to heal the past, let go of excess, and keep a sense of humor while trying to stay flexible in the search for stability. No Place Like Home reminds everyone of the age-old struggle not just to find a house, but to build a true home. The author has included a new introduction written especially for this audiobook. "Compelling, original, and a fascinating portrait of life among young artists in New York City." "In this engaging chronology spanning twenty years, from college to hard-won success, the award-winning playwright tells her story of searching for home…Her writing moves fluidly as she schleps from studio to loft to the occasional luxury apartment."
