Thoughts from a queen-sized bed

the long version

"In this book of essays, Mimi Schwartz describes what it means to be married for almost forty years. She writes with a keen and amused eye about growing up in an immigrant Jewish family, coming of age in New York in the 1950s, marrying her high school beau, and then arriving at feminist consciousness in the 1970s like so many other of her generation. But unlike many of her contemporaries who left first marriages for independence, Schwartz stayed loyal to her marriage."--BOOK JACKET.
