|  | Pure Poetry
Lila Moscowitz is a poet whose specialties are sex, lies, and screwing up her life, but what she really wants is happiness--and that's her problem. She consults her ex-husband, with whom she reviews her life, and with his help she comes to some conclusions about herself that make her think that, maybe, it's possible to start over again and do things differently.

Loy was a child in fascist Italy when the laws changed to exclude Jews from virtually every facet of community, from the loss of the right to publish a book to the right to publish a phone number in a town directory. This memoir examines these changes from a child's perspective during the crucial years 1936 to 1944. Listed as one of the best non-fiction books of 2000 by the Los Angeles Times Book Review.
