Andover Bookstore Reading

Helen Fremont, Kathleen Aguero, Audrey Schulman, Jean Trounstine, and Karen Propp read last night at cozy, hospitable Andover Books, where we are the #1 seller on their hardcover nonfiction list. Again, we had a robust turnout and a stimulating discussion afterward. One woman in the audience said, "Marriage is a narrow ledge of compatibility." Audrey told us that among the predictors for a marriage to survive are that the man's smell be appealing to the woman and that the man agree with what a woman wants when it is really important to her. She didn't say, however, how often a woman gets to want something that is really important to her. A few people asked Bob (Jean's husband) to sign a copy of WHY I'M STILL MARRIED. He willingly obliged.
