The memoir delves into the author's reflections on her middle-class New York childhood, particularly within the unique setting of a housing project she viewed as a "utopia of the fifties." It emphasizes the significance of memory over chronological storytelling, examining how the impersonal and symmetrical nature of Stuyvesant Town influenced her understanding of "home" and shaped her formative experiences.
