Resumen del Editor
An enchanting novel about one day in the lives of three unforgettable characters as they search for love, music, and hope on the snow-covered streets of Philadelphia.
Madeleine Altimari is a smart-mouthed, rebellious nine-year-old who also happens to be an aspiring jazz singer. Still mourning the recent death of her mother, and caring for her grief-stricken father, she doesn't realize that on the eve of Christmas Eve, she is about to have the most extraordinary day - and night - of her life.
After bravely facing down mean-spirited classmates and rejection at school, Madeleine doggedly searches for Philadelphia's legendary jazz club The Cat's Pajamas, where she's determined to make her on-stage debut.
On the same day, her fifth-grade teacher, Sarina Greene, who's just moved back to Philly after a divorce, is nervously looking forward to a dinner party that will reunite her with an old high school crush, afraid to hope that sparks might fly again.
And across town at The Cat's Pajamas, club owner Lorca discovers that his beloved haunt may have to close forever, unless someone can find a way to quickly raise the $30,000 that would save it.
Together, Madeleine, Sarina, and Lorca will discover life's endless possibilities over the course of one magical night. A vivacious, charming and moving debut, 2 A.M. at The Cat's Pajamas will capture your heart and have you laughing out loud.

There's something eerily unsettling about Ottessa Moshfegh's stories, something almost dangerous, while also being delightful and even laugh-out-loud funny. Her characters are all unsteady on their feet in one way or another; they all yearn for connection and betterment, though each in very different ways, but they are often tripped up by their own baser impulses and existential insecurities.

Historia
In 1965 Manhattan, patrons flock to Masha’s to savor its brisket bourguignon and impeccable service and to admire its dashing owner and head chef Peter Rashkin, the most eligible bachelor in town. But Peter does not care for the parade of eligible women who come to the restaurant hoping to catch his eye. Running Masha’s consumes him, as does his terrible guilt over surviving the horrors of the Nazi death camp while his wife, Masha - the restaurant’s namesake - and two young daughters perished. Then exquisitely beautiful June Bouquet, an up-and-coming young model, appears at the restaurant, piercing Peter’s guard.

By the time Wendy Lawless turned 17, she'd known for quite some time that she didn't have a normal mother. But that didn't stop her from wanting one.... Georgann Rea didn't bake cookies or go to PTA meetings; she wore a mink coat and always had a lit Dunhill plugged into her cigarette holder. She went through men like Kleenex, and didn't like dogs or children. Georgann had the ice queen beauty of a Hitchcock heroine and the cold heart to match.

Everything about 15-year-old Cat's new town in rural Michigan is lonely and off-kilter until she meets her neighbor, the manic, beautiful, pill-popping Marlena. Cat, inexperienced and desperate for connection, is quickly lured into Marlena's orbit by little more than an arched eyebrow and a shake of white-blond hair. As the two girls turn the untamed landscape of their desolate small town into a kind of playground, Cat catalogues a litany of firsts - first drink, first cigarette, first kiss - while Marlena's habits harden and calcify.

Liz Murray was born to loving but drug-addicted parents in the Bronx. In school she was taunted for her dirty clothing and lice-infested hair, eventually skipping so many classes that she was put into a girls' home. At age 15, Liz found herself on the streets when her family finally unraveled. She learned to scrape by, foraging for food and riding subways all night to have a warm place to sleep. Then, when Liz's mother died of AIDS, she decided to take control of her own destiny.

An Enchanting Original
This quirky debut novel by Marie-Helene Bertino is just the right mix of despair and optimism. Set in downtown Philadelphia, the story unfolds the morning of Christmas Eve Eve and follows the interconnected lives of three charming but flawed characters over the next 24-hours. There’s Madeleine, a smart-mouthed and talented nine-year-old who recently lost her mother; Sarina, her newly divorced fifth grade teacher; and Lorca, the forlorn owner of the once legendary jazz club The Cat’s Pajamas. The events of the day gradually weave the characters closer together until they finally intersect during one unforgettable late night rendezvous at the city’s #2 jazz club. 2 A.M. at The Cat’s Pajamas packs both heart and punches and is sure to delight readers and book clubs alike.

Ausome. Aumazing. Audictive.
"2 A.M." was my 2nd Audible title, a 2nd gift from a sister, and 2 good 2 put down. I devoured it and have listened to it 2 more times since... and it confirmed my addiction to audiobooks. This was the book that made a subscriber out of me.
This is one of those enchanting books that catches me up in its narrative and weaves a spell I carry with me for days. It's one of those books I'm sorry to hear end, and look forward to hearing again. And it's one I check every now and then, to see if there's more from the same author. While it's a perfectly satisfying story, I still want more.

Give the Narrator Some Time
Where does 2 A.M. at The Cat's Pajamas rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
2 AM at The Cat's Pajamas is one of my favorite audiobooks so far.
What was one of the most memorable moments of 2 A.M. at The Cat's Pajamas?
When Madeleine tells off the principal. I love that little girl. Kudos to the author for writing a child who is complex, lovable and hilarious. We can pretend that children are innocent little cherubs, but the majority of them are not.
What about Angela Goethals’s performance did you like?
In the beginning, I found Goethal's performance to be a little heavy handed-- she's very dramatic. However, as I got to know the characters, I began to enjoy her style and equate her voice with Serena's character. Goethal's style is particularly suited for the more poetic passages in the book, which I really enjoyed.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When Lorca struggles with the spectrum of his emotions as he listens to his son perform.
Any additional comments?
I generally listen to audiobooks during my commute. The exceptional ones find me sitting in my car in the driveway, unable to turn them off. This one made it to the kitchen table, the garage, the bathroom, etc. I only wish it hadn't ended so fast.

Funny Imaginative Story
Music is life and this story delves into the lives of well developed character. The stories was nicely read by the narrator, but this audible book needs an actor, or someone who can deliver the punch lines and witty humor to assist the listener in recognizing the humor throughout this book.

Kids and cussing are not my cup of tea-unnecessary
What disappointed you about 2 A.M. at The Cat's Pajamas?
Personally, I would not use words that I would not want my kids to use.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Nothing by this author.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
She was fine.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment.
Any additional comments?
I bought the book because of a personal musical connection. Life is hard enough. I did not enjoy being weighed down by vulgarity from a child's lips.
Too much variety in writing styles......I found that distracting too, distracting too, distracting too. It was as though the author was trying to prove a point.

not what I expectied
What would have made 2 A.M. at The Cat's Pajamas better?
It was a very weird book not at all what I'd thought it'd be I didn't like it the story line was very confusing to me a few chapters just seemed to be thrown in for no reason I honestly still don't know what this was supposed to be about maybe if the author was a bit more straight forward with the story line
