Fourteen
It's true that Mara and Jo are best friends. As teenagers, Mara and Jo were both troubled. They met when they were both 14. Neither of their lives are stable. Their jobs are uncertain, their dates don't work out, and writing is something they do on the side, like so many things in Brooklyn do. When Jo needs Mara's help, Mara will do everything she can to help. Jo will be thinking about something else by the time Mara comes over. As Jo's troughs get deeper and Mara's resentment grows, the story moves forward with a lot of care. In time, Jo gets a job and Mara gets a baby girl. All of these things keep pulling at their relationship as time goes by.
