About Telling Sonny

Beautifully Written, Heartbreaking Portrayal of Innocence Lost and the Love of Family Telling Sonny is a coming-of-age novel set in the 1920s, when much of vaudeville had devolved into the Small Time. Not so for Faby Gauthier, a naïve girl from the small village of Enosburg Falls, Vermont. For Faby, the annual vaudeville show that comes to the village is worthy of the Great White Way itself. Pretty and vivacious, Faby catches the eye of Slim White, America's self-proclaimed Favorite Hoofer. She spends time with him during the week of the show's run in hopes of learning first-hand how it feels to perform on the vaudeville stage. On Slim White's last night in the village, seduction would appear inevitable, and Faby succumbs. Her desire to forget her lapse in judgment is not to be, however. In a misguided to attempt to do the right thing, Slim White marries Faby on a whim and takes her with him on the vaudeville circuit. Little does she know that in a few short months, she will learn the true meaning of Small Time, setting her life on a path she never imagined.
