While the book is set in the 1950s and early 1960s, the author's observations about womanhood, beauty, and the relationships between men and women are timeless.
This is a novel from the early days of the feminist movement, first published in 1969-70. It's a lot of fun to read, and though I read it long ago, I remember liking it a lot; it's very perceptive about a young woman's feelings and relationships in that era.
