Becca Jane Approximately
When your mother sends back your invitations
And your father to your sister he explains
That you're tired of yourself and all your creations
Won't you come and see me, Queen Jane?

There is nothing like a book about a group of modern women in their mid-40s who don’t call themselves feminists and have decided to give up work to raise kids in Manhattan to cement two notions:
1. Never live in Manhattan (there are too many books about that area, no? Anyway).
2. Have creative life. Make stuff. Do not work in an office, even if I have to risk itinerant poverty and eternal debt. We’ll all be living in Cormac McCarthy’s The Road soon, thus why worry about being substantial and important.
