An enchanting and classic novel of a young woman's voyage of discovery across the Midwest.

Presents the author's regular bulletins.

Maggie Walsh has always done everything by the book - right up until the day she walks out of her marriage. Follow her on a journey of discovery, from suburbia to a suntan, complete with martinis and heartache, as she discovers what she really wants in life.

Three young wives make the journey into motherhood, and discover how it changes their sense of themselves and their relationships with friends and family.

At twenty-nine, Claire has everything she ever wanted: a husband she adores, a great apartment, a good job. Then, on the day she gives birth to her first baby. James visits her in the recovery room to inform her that he's leaving her. She is left with a newborn daughter, a broken heart, and a body that she can hardly bear to look at in the mirror.

Helps you get yourself comfortable and shows you places like the Irish air-guitar championships, a shopping trip to Bloomingdales with a difference and Cannes with a chronic case of Villa-itis. This book offers knicker-politics, fake tans, sticky-out ears and love affairs both with make-up and Toblerones.
