Cutting Teeth by Julia Fierro

Cutting Teeth by Julia Fierro
An unlikely group of parents and children from New York City vacation together at a beach house on Long Island over Labor Day weekend in Cutting Teeth by Julia Fierro. Friendships crumble and alliances break as the characters try to keep their insecurities and oddities at bay. The book covers all of the complex dilemmas that modern day urban families face these days, from romance and friendship to parenting and class tension to wondering...is this as good as it gets?

"Fierro's first novel captures the complexity of forging new friendships and redefining lives as contemporary parents. Although largely unsympathetic, her characters are meticulously drawn, the situations emotionally charged. Readers, especially young parents, won't be able to look away from the train wreck of urban family dysfunction on display here." (Booklist Reviews)
