The Girl in the Red Dress is the story of a vivacious, talented young woman whose life falls apart through a succession of bad marriages. Driven by her refusal to accept advice and her insistence upon nursing grievances, she gradually loses contact with her close relations and friends. Left only with relatives she rarely sees, internet acquaintances she has never met, and a large collection of gemstone jewelry, she dies impoverished and alone.Sixty Years on the Rockpile is a humorous, often tongue-in-cheek account of a housewife that evokes tears as well as laughter in the reader. It appeals to women of all ages and to everyone who has ever tried to raise a family. Written over a period of six years, the final compilation is basically a memoir containing nostalgic references to the early forties, when the prevailing mindset relegated women's position in society to cooking for their families or typing for their bosses. The author hopes this book will further the efforts of the more liberated women of today to fulfill their goals.
