Summary

When Mary Forrest receives the gift of an astrological reading for her birthday, she doesn’t expect it to be the harbinger of her life’s imminent upheaval. This is Mary’s Saturn Return year, her twenty-ninth; the year that the planet Saturn returns to exact spot it was in when she was born. It presages a time of change, change that Mary is unprepared for. She must overcome intimacy and abandonment issues, resurrect her relationship with her ailing mother, and learn to trust the man that she loves.

What They're Saying

Critics Review

Praise for Saturn’s Return to New York

“Perfectly suited to the present … Gran is expert at social comedy, and at making rooms come alive.”
—NPR Books

“How refreshing to encounter a twenty-something female narrator who is intelligent, witty, breath-takingly honest and in pursuit of neither money nor marriage. Rather, Sara Gran’s Mary is seeking to come to terms with loss and missed connections. A very funny novel, but ultimately a poignant one.”
Binnie Kirshenbaum, author of The Scenic Route

“Sophisticated, eclectic, witty and poignant.”
Rocky Mountain News

“Gran’s first offers sly humor while incorporating some emotional heft … A must for nostalgic Manhattanites.”
Kirkus Reviews

“A smart and discerning story.”
Publishers Weekly

“Compelling and moving.”
Booklist
