Shiksa Goddesscollects thirty-five of her urbane, inspiring, and deeply empathic essays-all written when she was in her forties, and all infused with her trademark irreverent humor.The full range of Wassersteins mid-life obsessions are covered in this eclectic collection: everything from Chekhov, politics, and celebrity, to family, fashion, and real estate. Whether fretting over her figure, discovering her gentile roots, proclaiming her love for ordered-in breakfasts, lobbying for affordable theater, or writing tenderly about her very Jewish mother and her own daughter, born when she was forty-eight and single, Wasserstein reveals the full, dizzying life of a shiksa goddess with unabashed candor and inimitable style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819524522272,"sku":"NEW0375726039","price":18.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/616uEPDi8DL.jpg?v=1781133686","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/shiksa-goddess-or-how-i-spent-my-forties-essays-0375726039","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
