A novel called Prospect Park West by Amy Sohn has been optioned by Sarah Jessica Parker's production company in conjunction with HBO. The book, out in America on September 1, is about four women on Brooklyn's Park Slope who are all desperate to get their children into the right school.
If you haven't heard of Park Slope before The Sunday Times writes that it is the epicentre of competitive parenting where parents hog the pavements with their £500 baby buggies and kids aged two and upwards can take courses in science, African drumming and world politics.Sounds like my idea of hell (just ask my son playing with the Wii).
Surely a must see?
