Why read it?
1 author picked Love and Trouble as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Dederer’s book explores her sudden, mid-life yearning for carnal pleasure and compares them to her promiscuous youth. We see her sleeping with enough people in college to earn a recommendation on a park bench (“for a good time call Clare Dederer"), and also as a married mother and artist who longs for something more, but she’s not sure what it is. Punctuated with hilarious entries from her childhood journal, this book delivers on every level.
From Christie's list on the glorious truth of women’s bodies and their lives.
