When Linda arrives in New York for a weekend visit with her brother Ray, it's as if she's landed in another world. Linda and Ray couldn't be more different. She's a stylish young suburban mom from Southern California and he's a grubby tenement dweller on New York's crumbling Lower East Side. Ray is a bundle of contradictions. He's a successful headhunter (recruiter for legal firms) and though he's rapidly approaching middle age, he lives like he's still 20. He's paid in cash so he doesn't have to file taxes. He has no bank account, no credit cards and he doesn't have health or any other kind of insurance. Ray considers himself lucky, a free man unencumbered by the sort of responsibilities that weigh on his sister. Ray recently got married, which might seem out of character, except that his new wife Teresa can't speak any English. Since Ray can't speak any Spanish they can only communicate in the most rudimentary way. Teresa is a beautiful young Colombian immigrant who performs Spanish language phone sex for a living. That's all just fine with Ray, but Linda senses trouble. And she's right. Teresa feels lonely and isolated and her old lover Luis wants her back. Teresa begins to stray. But Linda's antenna isn't as well tuned for herself as it is for her brother. Her own marriage in California is deteriorating and during the course of the summer in New York she becomes increasingly reckless and gets drawn into an affair with Ray's junkie friend Harlan. It falls to Ray to rescue his sister even while he struggles to keep his own marriage from falling apart. "A belated coming of age... Intimate, passionate, bristling with intelligence and vitality." -- Kevin Thomas (Los Angeles Times)
