520    "There was a time when the family Künstler lived in the 
       fairy-tale city of Vienna. Circumstances transformed that 
       fairy tale into a nightmare, and in 1939 the Künstlers 
       found their way out of Vienna and into a new fairy tale: 
       Los Angeles, California, United States of America. An ill-
       timed visit forces twentysomething New Yorker Julian to 
       shelter in place in Venice Beach with his glamorous and 
       eccentric ninety-three-year-old grandmother, Mamie 
       Künstler, and her inscrutable housekeeper. To pass the 
       time, Mamie regales Julian with stories of her adolescent 
       adventures among the émigré elite, from tennis lessons 
       with Arnold Schoenberg to a romance with Greta Garbo. 
       During his unexpected extended stay in his grandmother's 
       crumbling domain, Julian undergoes his own personal quest 
       as he reckons with the trajectory of the life he thought 
       he wanted and what role he will choose to play in it all"-
