Opening on her 50th birthday, Erica Jong's midlife memoir reads like fast-paced fiction as it flashes back and forth in time to tell at last the truths at the heart of her novels. This is the true story of the woman who 30+ years ago showed her generation how to soar in Fear of Flying, and now looks back - and ahead - to assess the costs, the rewards, and the meanin go of the "journey."

good writting. easy read. not quite as good as some of her books but worth a read.
