Fiction Family Life
Anny Applebaum is seventy and writes The Viagra Diaries, a
San Francisco weekly column researching sixty-plus boomers
looking for love. She places ads on Internet singles sites
and interviews men over sixty. Is love possible in the
Viagra generation? Divorced for thirty years, Anny has given
up on love and concentrates on her career. She is looking
for controversy and hopes that her column will bring her
fame and fortune. On Jdate, Anny meets and interviews Marv
Rothstein, a handsome, seventy-five-year-old, emotionally
unavailable diamond dealer. Anny is attracted to Marv, and
they become involved in a torrid affair. But very soon, Anny
discovers that the elusive Marv is a serial JDater prowling
the singles sites for younger women, and that he still sees
his much younger ex-wife. Anny decides to write a series of
columns, modeled after Marv, about a man who can't face age,
calling him Mr. X. As Anny's Mr. X columns gain recognition,
she struggles with her conflict about Marv, her career
hopes, relationships, and her coming of age.
