Hello My Intellectual Femmely,
Tomorrow night, first time Author Patti Hawn is going to be signing copies of her new book "Good Girls Don't: A Memoir by Patti Hawn" at Pages: A Bookstore in Manhattan Beach.
I think this one is especially cool. I share a mutual friend with the author and have heard only rave reviews of her as a woman, and a friend. I can't wait to see what she brings as an Authoress.
Here's a little blurb about the book from the website.
"... A deeply personal first-hand account of what it was like to be trapped in an unwanted pregnancy at the close of an era where home economics took precedence over sex education. It tells the story of the last generation of young women to experience life on the eve of the sexual revolution of the sixties and the passing of legislation legalizing abortion. It is a unique time in history, foreign to an entire generation of women, that resulted in an incredible number of reunions between birth parents and their children --- 20, 30 and 40 years after."
I come from a family of re-united adoption, and I know how powerful that connection is. I can't wait to hear Ms. Hawn talk about her experiences first hand. Please come along, and bring an open mind, and an open heart.
