Softcover. Freedom CA, Crossing Press, 1st, 1990, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 150 pages. The author's second book. In 10 astute, mildly zany and often wickedly funny stories, Kirshenbaum peers at a multifaceted assortment of modern relationships. A wife who decides to organize her life by making lists of "Things to Do" discovers she married not for love, but for a good health plan. If you are a woman with a past, there is no point to an attachment with a man who thinks only of the future, according to "Past Perfect." Reality may encompass a gray Honda Civic in suburban Connecticut, but to the narrator of "Wheels," true love is a sleek, cobalt-blue Alfa Romeo on the open road. "Pravda" describes two women, friends of many years, who spend a fall afternoon outdoors on a bench discussing Marxism, men and amorality. An American couple who have come to Romania in search of romance to save their marriage find only "Travail"; the highlight of their vacation is the sight of three stuffed goats in pink tutus.
