"Adelmann tells the story of her MFA years at the University of Virginia with a refreshing gentleness and lack of judgment. She offers keen insights into her 'craving to create on [her] own terms.'" —Open Letters Monthly "Many of the best moments in 'MFA vs NYC' are those that glide off topic. We witness Ms. Adelmann’s telling her father she had written a novella, and his responding: 'Novella? That chocolate spread?' —The New York Times |

"Reflecting its status as a low-key island getaway, the Catalina Resort & Spa is designed in a classic Mediterranean style that melds the outdoors with the in. The buildings feature terra-cotta roofs, stucco walls, large open windows, and arched doorways. The spacious courtyard includes a heated pool and hot tub, while pathways wind through the palm-tree studded grounds and offer up plenty of patio seating and sunning areas. The grounds offer hilltop views of downtown and are well-kept, but can feel brown and bleak if you hit the resort during a California drought."
