内容简介

I am profoundly grateful to.my sons, Ryan and Darren, for theirintrepid independence and solid affection during the long monthsI was sequestered in my office, preoccupied with our past; to myparenting ally, Howard, for his continued affection and wit despitean ex-wife-who-writes; to my friend, Larry, not only for saving mylife but also for admirably braving the ups and downs of the sub-sequent years; and to my parents, Kay and Jerry, who ushered meand my four siblings through childhood with skill and intelligence,then gave us a lifetime of ever-richer humor and love. I thank my Fort Wayne friends, Joan Uebelboer, CathrynAdamsky, Mary Ann Wanush, Carolen Collins, Ann Raber, AliceGillam, and Jeanette Clausen, the war buddies and soul mates whotaught me during my formative years that motherhood was notonly a private passion but a political job.
