En savoir plus sur le livre
With laugh-out-loud humor and heartfelt wisdom, Laura Zigman's second novel introduces Ellen Franck, a successful single career woman whose longing for a child propels her into the ranks of the "reproductively challenged." Despite her glamorous fashion industry job, a Greenwich Village apartment, and good friends, Ellen feels an unnameable void. The arrival of her newborn niece, Nicole, clarifies her desire: she wants a child. However, her relationship with Malcolm, who is haunted by the death of his young son, complicates matters. As she approaches thirty-five, Ellen's urgency grows, particularly when her sister Lynn announces her second pregnancy. Faced with the flaws in her relationship with Malcolm, Ellen grapples with her fears about single motherhood. This leads her to a journey filled with reading, Internet surfing, and Zigmanesque observations on pregnancy—from morning sickness to amniocentesis. Ultimately, Ellen arrives at a decisive moment that will alter the course of her life forever.
