Publisher's Note
E. L. Konigsburg revisits the town of Epiphany to tell the story of Margaret Rose Kane, Connor's older half-sister. It's about the summer when Margaret Rose turned twelve--the same year that Cabbage Patch dolls were popular, that Sally Ride became the first woman to go into space, that El Niño turned the world upside-down. Margaret Rose begins her summer with a miserable experience at camp; from which she's rescued by her beloved, eccentric uncles. Little does she know that her uncles, in turn, need rescuing themselves--from a tyrannical city council determined to tear down her uncles' life work--three spectacularly beautiful towers that her uncles have been building since before Margaret was a baby.

THE OUTCASTS OF 19 SCHUYLER PLACE is a rousing audiobook about intelligence, art, and the fierce preservation of individuality.

Industry Reviews
"While the novels strikes a few uncharacteristically false notes toward the end, the author offers readers so much, so well, that her book is a veritable feast, amply demonstrating how intelligence can triumph over pretense."
Publishers Weekly (01/12/2004)

"This story condescends not one whit to its audience, passionately confronting readers with the critical importance of history, art, beauty, community, love, and above all, the necessity to invest oneself in meaningful action. This it does with every word in place, occasionally indulging in dizzying linguistic riffs, always conscious of the ironies inherent in the acts of living and growing up."
Kirkus (12/15/2003)

"It's rare to see, in a book for young readers, descriptions of art for art's sake....The actual legal drama to save the towers feels familiar. But Konigsburg's depiction of outsiders and outsider art is, like the towers themselves, a thing of strange beauty."
New York Times Book Review - Meg Wolitzer (04/18/2004)
