A Round-Heeled Woman

Jane Juska is a writer and English teacher, and at the age of 66--divorced, retired, in analysis--she decides that what she needs in her life is more sex. With the help of a personal ad in the New York Review of Books, she has a variety of sexual and romantic encounters. As she talks about them, she also delves into her background, which includes a sexually repressive upbringing, a troubled marriage, and a bout with obesity. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
