Finding Love in an Upside-Down World is a memoir about the wacky, spontaneous, and humorous adventures of a bright, sassy, spirited girl living with her unconventional, loving family in a small gritty tenement in Hoboken, New Jersey during the 1950s and 60s. A motley cast of zany characters including family members, teachers, neighbors and friends appear and disappear along the way as she travels through grammar, high school and college where she eventually meets, falls in love with her brilliant literature professor, and begins a whirlwind, unforgettable romance. They marry a year later in 1971, and buy an old farm house a short distance away from a theater owned by a colorful community of eccentric actors. The marriage lasts for forty-seven amazing, magical years until death separates them in 2016. Drawing parallels between the unpredictable nature of human existence and the subatomic world of Quantum Mechanics the memoir ends by satirizing how the best intentions of life often go awry. Or as John Lennon once said, "Life is what happens to you, when you're busy making other plans." Finding Love in an Upside Down Universe may make you think as well as laugh.
