To Hell with All That
The full title of the book is "To Hell with All That Loving and Loathing our Inner Housewife" by Caitlin Flanagan.Short version: An absolutely hysterical take on weddings, babies, married life, and contemporary vs 1950s life.
Long version: Well there isn't much of a long version as the subtitle sums it up pretty nicely. Throughout the book Caitlin Flanagan take a long look at 1950s marriage and housewifery, and compares it to the authenticity we are desperately seeking. The book is a quick read, with sections I subjected my poor hubby to while he desperately attempted to watch the military channel. To a certain extent, this is a 2000s Erma Bombeck. It's short, it's entertaining, it's light. Pick it up.
