Laura Gross Literary Agency

By Sheila Curran

A comedy-of-manners, Diana Lively is Falling Down follows Diana, a talented British architect who now builds dollhouses, from England to the Arizona desert, where her second husband, Ted, a scholar of Arthurian legends and a louse, must serve as a consultant on the construction of a King Arthur theme park.  Despite Diana’s misconceptions about Phoenix, it is there, in this most unlikely place and in the most surprising ways, that she rediscovers the happiness she thought was lost forever—and Ted discovers that there is indeed justice in the world.  “Beautifully detailed and rich in exceptional characterization,” raves Shelley Mosley of the American Library Association, “…Curran’s novel gently reminds readers that fantasy has a place in everyone’s life, and dreams can come true. Uniquely uplifting and never didactic, this is a gem.”
