The Best of Everything by Rona Jaffe

Sheila’s first review of the year

really liked it
Very little is dated about this story from 1958- at least when it comes to patriarchy and sexism. All I can say is we haven’t come as far as we should have except I do think women are wiser and can see it more clearly than the characters in this story. It is a classic time capsule from a woman’s perspective.

Love her music and pretty much everything about her as an artist so this was a great treat. She has always been so real and authentic, it is inspirational.
