Night Has Settled

In 1983 NYC, 13-year-old Oliver Nicholas's coming-of-age is derailed when his beloved housekeeper, Aida, has a stroke, plunging him into depression and a chaotic home. Surrounded by unconventional women and navigating mania, first love, and betrayal with his eccentric friends, Oliver struggles for sanity in a uniquely New York "baptism by fire."

My take

A raw, emotionally turbulent dive into adolescence in 1980s New York. This is for anyone who craves authentic coming-of-age stories that don't shy away from chaos, loss, and the messy reality of growing up surrounded by complicated people.
