Dežurna kučka

Cathi Hanauer

Women tell the truth about sex, loneliness, work, motherhood, and marriage.

Women today have more choices than ever before. And yet, more and more smart, ambitious, modern women are becoming more and more bitter, dissatisfied, and stressed by the day. Why are they dissatisfied? What do they really want? These questions are the premise of this passionate, provocative, funny, and downright honest collection of essays that invites readers to enter the lives, minds, and bedrooms of 26 women and reflect on the decisions they make, to see what works and what doesn't. By sharing their own private lives and sharing their innermost truths about marriage, sex, dress sizes, loneliness, career, and motherhood, 26 writers have created a different, honest, exciting, talkative, open, and at the same time uncomfortable and entertaining book. With wit and humor, in prose as powerful as it is direct, these intriguing and self-aware women – between the ages of twenty-four and sixty-five, single, childless, married, with children, or sometimes even four times divorced – reveal often shocking details from their lives.
