This is an author's appreciation of a review

It is a gratifying experience to read a review as positive as Mr. O'Connor's a full 25 years after I wrote "The Woman Alone." I'm touched and pleased that it still speaks to people so long after the events in my life that produced it. What more can a writer ask?

The definitive classic work on the subject of women alone.

The author's definition encompasses not only women living by themselves, but those psycologically dependent on husbands and alone inside a marriage, along with many other situations. She (the author) mixes her own experiences with experiences of women she interviews. She successfully creates a beautiful reference for women and men coping with how to make decisions under many circumstances. You so much admire how she moved from a 1950's dependent housewife to a strong person, able to cope with the many obstacles anyone can face in finding an identity. This book is one of the finest works I have ever read on any subject.
