Lifestyle & Parenting

a beachy read

July 4, 2007

From duplicitous judges to private jets, illicitly procured Pucci scarves, suicides and institutionalizations, there’s more drama in the new book of collected essays The Other Woman than the entire oeuvre of “Desperate Housewives.”

With true-life-tales from Pulitzer Prize winner Jane Smiley, editor Victoria Zackheim (author of The Bone Weaver,) and the hilarious Mary Jo Eustace—whose husband ditched her in her wet bikini missing the right breast pad—the authors share their tales of betrayal (and redemption) with intelligence and wit.

Pass the Dermalogica sunscreen, lay out the Hermès towel and crack the spine….the book we mean, not his.

$31.99 at major bookstores including Vancouver’s Duthie Books, 2239 W. Fourth Ave., Vancouver, B.C., 604-732-5344, www.duthiebooks.com
