I found a copy of A Nest of Ninnies yesterday in a used bookstore. The 1979 reprint, not the first edition. I got three quarters of the way through it and then fell asleep. It has blurbs from Ned Rorem and W.H. Auden, of all people. Is this Schuyler's third best novel, out of three? The Ashbery input doesn't make it better. Alftred and G. and What's for Dinner are both better.
