This intriguing collection of original essays by women in
their thirties celebrates this often maligned period in a
woman's life as, in fact, a productive, dynamic, and vibrant
time of self-invention and personal and professional
creativity. If recent bestsellers such as The Bitch in the House
and Midlife Crisis at Thirty serve as any indication
of how women are experiencing their thirties, who can blame
women embarking upon this decade in their life for
panicking? Yet, as the contributors to this thoughtful and
inspiring book attest, it doesn't have to be so scary. In The May Queen, a wide array of women-including
bestselling author Jennifer Weiner and star of the hit
independent film Kissing Jessica Stein Heather
Juergensen-describe the conflicting emotions they've felt in
response to the "anything is possible" message women of
their generation receive. And yet, all of the women featured
in this book have found their thirties to be a time of great
opportunity-a period in their lives in which they're taking
the time to consider what they have lost, what they have
gained, and what they still need to learn. This book gives a
powerful voice to a new generation of women beginning to
make its mark on the world.
