In plays such as Isn t It Romantic， Uncommon Women and Others， and the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Heidi Chronicles， Wendy Wasserstein put her finger on the pulse of her past-modern， post-feminist sisters and delivered her diagnosis with shrewd good humor and an unerring sense of the absurd. That same engaging sensibility bubbles through the twenty-nine essays in Bachelor Girls， in which Wasserstein presents her observations on:-- Boyfriends -- "The worse the boyfriend， the more stunning your American Express bill."-- Role Models -- "In the forties emulating an ideal woman meant bobbing your hair like Betty Grable s. In the eighties， because of Jessica Lange， women have to get a Pulitzer Prize-winning actor-playwright to fall in love with them， have a child by one of the world s great dancers， be nominated for two Academy Awards， and enjoy doing the laundry alone on a farm."-- Success -- "I knew my friend Patti was a big-time Hollywood agent the first time I saw her dial a telephone with a pencil."Ranging from the dietary secrets of lemon mousse to the politics of the second marriage， with stopovers at a bar mitzvah in Westchester， a chess tournament in Rumania， and a Tokyo production of Isn t It Romantic， Bachelor Girls is pure Wasserstein， which is to say， pure joy.From the Trade Paperback edition.
