Sunday evening with the Princess of 72nd Street by Elaine Kraf. Ellen is a single artist living in the UWS in the 1970s occasionally she experiences what she calls "radiances" and becomes Princess Esmeralda.

Finished this about an hour ago. Even knowing how novels disappear, it surprises me that this one did.

I loved loved loved this book when I first read it decades ago. Then my copy got loaned to someone and I never got it back. The search for another was quite difficult. But I got one. And I have never landed it again.
