  Meet Mazie
Phillips: big-hearted and bawdy, she's the truth-telling proprietress of The Venice, the famed New York City movie
theater. It's the Jazz Age, with romance and booze aplenty--even when Prohibition kicks in--and Mazie never turns down a
night on the town. But her high spirits mask a childhood rooted in poverty, and her diary, always close at hand, holds
her dearest secrets.
  
  When the Great Depression hits, Mazie's life is on the brink of transformation.
Addicts and bums roam the Bowery; homelessness is rampant. If Mazie won't help them, then who? When she opens the doors
of The Venice to those in need, this ticket taking, fun-time girl becomes the beating heart of the Lower East Side, and
in defining one neighborhood helps define the city.
  
  Then, more than ninety years after Mazie began her
diary, it's discovered by a documentarian in search of a good story. Who was Mazie Phillips, really? A chorus of voices
from the past and present fill in some of the mysterious blanks of her adventurous life.
  
  Inspired by the
life of a woman who was profiled in Joseph Mitchell's classic Up in the Old Hotel, SAINT MAZIE is infused with Jami
Attenberg's signature wit, bravery, and heart. Mazie's rise to "sainthood"--and her irrepressible spirit--is
unforgettable. 
  
  PRAISE
  "I loved it to pieces . . . Through an incredible cast of voices,
Attenberg gives us the story of Mazie Phillips, the bawdy, brassy broad who runs a New York theater from the Jazz Age
through Prohibition and into the Great Depression. Mazie never marries but has admirers aplenty, and she grows from
party girl into community fixture as she devotes her time to caring for the homeless and hungry. The frame and structure
Attenberg gives her story are as interesting as the story itself, and the whole experience is a delight. Highly
recommended!"
  ( Book Riot ).
  
  "A raw, boisterous, generous novel with a heroine to match and New
York in its soul, Saint Mazie offers proof again that Jami Attenberg is a brilliant, lion-hearted storyteller." (Maggie
Shipstead, author of Astonish Me and Seating Arrangements).
  
  "With SAINT MAZIE, Jami Attenberg has crafted
a tale that is somehow both a love song and a gut punch at once, and will leave you all the better for having read it.
When I finished reading, I wanted to start all over again." ( Therese Anne Fowler, author of Z: A Novel of Zelda
Fitzgerald).
  
  "Jami Attenberg is a master at creating complex and compelling characters. She did it with
Edie Middlestein of The Middlesteins, and she's done it again with Mazie Phillips-Gordon of SAINT MAZIE. While Mazie is
an actual historical figure, in Attenberg's adept hands, she blossoms as a multidimensional woman who helped the
down-and-out in New York City during and after the Depression, while stirring up her own mischief and bad behavior. A
wonderful and thoughtful read, as relevant then as it is today, SAINT MAZIE is not to be missed." (B.A. Shapiro, New
York Times bestselling author of The Art Forger).
  
  "SAINT MAZIE is a novel with as much style and moxie as
its titular character. I missed Mazie Gordon-Phillips and her family when I was finished reading, but I missed New York,
too. By telling this one woman's story, Jami Attenberg has managed to write an ode to New Yorkers of every generation.
She is a true poet of the city." (Gabrielle Zevin, author of The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry).
  
  "I'd love
to be Jami Attenberg for a day to see what she sees. The next best thing is to read the touching, funny, and wise SAINT
MAZIE, which is as difficult to categorize as the hard-living, heart-breaking, soul-saving ticket taker it is about."
(Charlotte Rogan, author of The Lifeboat).
  
  "SAINT MAZIE moves with joy and wonder through the past. This
book has such brio, warmth, intelligence and personality it seems a wonder it is made of mere words." ( Rebecca Lee,
author of Bobcat & Other Stories ).
  
  "Jami Attenberg is a beautiful, humane, and extremely funny
writer, and SAINT MAZIE-the story of a flawed, spiky, golden-hearted, broken-hearted broad, a kind of personification of
the Lower East Side of Manhattan in the first years of the 20th century-is a glorious book." ( Louisa Young, author of
My Dear I Wanted to Tell You ).
