Sunny moves back to her childhood neighborhood in New Haven, Connecticut, bolstered by her soon-to-be-ex-husband�聶s promises to bankroll a new start. Visions of the men who will soon people her new life�聶all good listeners�聶dance in her head.
Everyone has advice. Isabel, her childhood friend, tells her not to shave her legs on the first date because a radio talk show caller said it was the way to control her inner slut. Her mother, her aunt, and her next door neighbors all have opinions on the subject.
Sunny has little time for advice. Starting over means writing term papers, student teaching, putting up with roommates and a dumpy rental, shopping at Goodwill for an interview suit, and eating lots of lentils for dinner.
This novel is a must-read for women of a certain age who feel they are alone in *starting over* after divorce. Whether it�聶s the lack of money, the fear of the unknown, or a fear of being alone, it�聶s all here.
If you�聶re dying to try something new or someone new, dip into this book.
