About this audiobook
Though celebrated playwright Wendy Wasserstein was firmly rooted in New York's cultural life, her appeal is universal. Shiksa Goddess collects her urbane, inspiring, and deeply empathetic essays, all written when she was in her forties, and all infused with her trademark irreverent humor. The full range of Wasserstein' s 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, or writing tenderly about her very Jewish mother and her own daughter— born when Wendy was forty-eight and single— Wasserstein reveals the full, dizzying life of a shiksa goddess with unabashed candor and inimitable style.
