A remarkable new book. . . . Marcelle Clements's The Improvised Woman has that exhilarating Eureka! quality. . . . In its modest, quizzical way, The Improvised Woman is a visionary work.' Mirabella What is it like being a single woman today? A groundbreaking work of scope, wit, and exceptional empathy, The Improvised Woman answers that complex question, while in the process capturingand celebratingthe real lives of single American women. Over the past seven years, journalist and essayist Marcelle Clements asked over one hundred women from across the countryyoung and old, never married, divorced and widowed, childless and single mothersto talk about being single. How did they get there? Were they sorry or glad? What is the texture of their experience? The heart of this book is the individual voices of the women answering these questions, heard in all their tenacity and humor. 'The Improvised Woman doesn't glide over the messy contradictions that accompany being human. . . . Clements gives her interviewees center stage to speak their minds, and appends a series of thoughtful, witty essays.'Newsweek '[Clements] is wise, nonjudgmental and patient as she gains the trust of these women, who appear to be as interested in this study as the author isand as readers, especially other single women, will be.'Publishers Weekly (starred review)
