At 31, Rachel Lehmann-Haupt thought she had
everything: the perfect boyfriend, an exciting career, and
the promise of marriage and children in her future. But one
year later, the relationship ended and she found herself
starting over, consumed by a rapidly approaching deadline:
age 35, the dividing line between a regular and a “high
risk” pregnancy. Faced with the pressure of finding true
love on the edge of her fertility, Lehmann-Haupt traveled
around the world and into the heart of America to explore
the many new choices available to women in the twenty-first
century –egg freezing, single motherhood, and instant
families - as well as grapple with her own ambitions,
anxieties, and personal values. A witty, poignant, and
profoundly honest account of one woman’s efforts to
reconcile modern love with modern life, In Her Own Sweet
Time will resonate with a huge generation of young women
who want it all – a career, a family, the perfect partner –
but haven’t figured out yet how to fit it all together.
