Ripped Bodice

Berg's unique gift is for capturing emotions and joys in
women's lives, this time with the story of a woman who
refuses to let widowhood define her, and goes about
recreating a happy and meaningful life. She moves to a new
town after the death of her husband, where she rents a room
in a house with two young men. She forms a mother/lover
relationship with one of the young men, then meets a man
with whom she also starts a relationship, with complicated
results. At the same time, she reconnects with three college
friends; they don't live in her new town but they begin to
correspond and visit each other. Reinvention of a self and a
life, through love and forming connections between one's
past, present, and future is at the heart of this beautiful
novel.
