About this ebook
Marilyn Cugel's poignant memoir, The Yin-Yang Life of a Baby Boomer, explores the joys and sorrows of a well-lived, contemporary life. Cugel packs us in her suitcase, briefcase and diaper-bag as she journeys to places unimaginable to a young girl growing up in the fifties. We meet and enjoy the colorful and full-of-life characters whom she encounters along the way. Her unparalleled clarity, humor, and nostalgia are written as vignettes of childhood, marriage, infertility, motherhood, career, travel, and illness, which stimulate our memories and beckon us to consider the yins and yangs of our own lives.
