Description

"When Wendy Wasserstein turned forty, she made a To Do list composed mostly of items left over from when she turned thirty. The list included the annuals: lose weight, exercise, read more, improve female friendships, improve male friendships, and (left over from her second grade To Do list) become a better citizen. At the end of the list were the larger-than-life unavoidables: move, fall in love, and decide about a baby.". "In Shiksa Goddess, her first book of essays in ten years, Wendy writes about each of these quests and midlife obsessions."--BOOK JACKET.
