MEANWHILE ON A ROOF IN CHINATOWN--in the early 1990s, Alice, a middle-aged Swedish professor, stuffs her husband’s ties into the dishwasher and leaves their pleasant suburban villa outside of Stockholm, suitcase in hand, on a blind exodus towards a city she knows only from glossy travel brochures. Meanwhile, her daughter Babylonia is perched on the roof of her shabby Chinatown apartment, agonizing over how how to break up with her depressive Hungarian boyfriend. Alice manages to get locked out on the roof of her daughter's apartment without keys or money. This begins a picaresque journey, where she descends into an alternative Manhattan of after-hours clubs, gangsters, booze and roulette. Throughout her 48-hour odyssey, she engages with a quirky assortment of strangers, including the mysterious Charles. To find her way back to familiar ground is at first unmanageable and then, perhaps. not so desirable as she first thought. Alice can surprise as well as be surprised, and this story charms and beguiles with its feel for a New York of the not-so-distant past, a shabby, crazy and sometimes romantic city.

Meanwhile on a Roof in Chinatown drew this reader in from the very first paragraph.I thoroughly enjoyed Ingrid Rudefors New York tale.Its written with such intricate detail that was once invisible to the eye and heart becomes visible. It's reminiscent of a through the rabbit hole Alice in Wonderland adventure..with gritty mysterious underground characters instead of white rabbits and hookah smoking caterpillars . I didn't want the story to end..looking forward to the next one .

Meanwhile on a Roof in Chinatown edition by Ingrid Rudefors Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

'Meanwhile' is a very skillfully woven tale with a wonderfully cinematic feel throughout. Its characters are honest and thoughtful, and richly observant. They 'demand' that the reader becomes likewise. Hence, making your interaction with this book a highly rewarding one.
It brought me back to New York with all my senses smell, sounds the mad world of Chinatown and donwtown New York of the early 1990.
I really like this author's writing style. She engages her reader as though speaking with a friend. The time and place were authentic, the characters true to life and lots of fun, and the "coming of age" story is not your usual one. Overall, a very good read.
This book brings me right back to New York City I knew and loved back in the 80's and 90's. Ms. Rudefors wonderful female characters are fascinating. I want to get to know them better.

What a great book.
