An entertaining, poignant, and neurotic memoir describes one woman's life at the edge of turning forty, her midlife crisis, her obsession with the five men she had lusted after and lost between the ages of thirteen and thirty-five, and the impact of that obsession on her marriage. Reprint. 50,000 first printing.
