Summary

Atlanta, Georgia, December 1939: Hitler is invading Poland, but Atlanta's elitist German Jews are much more concerned with Ballyhoo, the social event of the season. The Freitag family: bachelor Adolph, his widowed sister Boo, and their widowed sister-in-law Reba, are especially concerned that Boo’s daughter Lala attend Ballyhoo, believing it will be her last chance to find a socially acceptable husband. Adolph brings his new assistant, Joe, home for dinner. Joe is Brooklyn born and bred, and is several social rungs below the Freitags, in Boo's opinion. Lala, however, is charmed by Joe. She hints broadly about being taken to Ballyhoo, but he turns her down. Matters worsen when Joe falls for cousin Sunny, home from Wellesley for Christmas vacation. The family gets pulled apart and then mended together with plenty of comedy, romance and revelations as the characters face where they come from and deal with who they really are.
