A different kind of chick-lit. One of the more adult set. Wifey is Sandy, an extremely unhappy housewife whose kids no longer need her, whose husband works all day, but then expects dinner ready when he walks in the door and that is just the beginning of her issues. She feels unloved, not listened too and she has lost her way. Very much a coming of age story, one that happens in your early 30's not in your teens. I had to keep reminding myself that the story was set in the early 70's. That most husbands and wives have different expectations of each other in this day and age. At times it was hard to read, hard to relate to Sandy and even harder to grasp the ending.
