Rating:  - A thoroughly disappointing novel.
This book was a disappointment from start to finish. Characters that are not believable populate mundane events that never lead to anything, nor do they resolve in the end. Three women who we are to believe are strong in positive and negative ways come across as shallow and peripheral. A thoroughly unsatisfying read.
Rating: - obviously written by a feminist!
And I am a feminist (so, I can be critical!) Marge Piercy's books are too pat. The women are all serious and dedicated, the men are all bad, and no one has a sense of humor. She makes her point, albiet in a very preachy manner. Her best books consist of her vision of the future. Read the book, He, She and It for her best.
