I've never heard of Amy Bloom (maybe I'm being revealing to admit that), but this quote really, really struck me. Is intimacy really that rare? That was almost reassuring - in a sad way. Sometimes I've just thought that something was wrong with ME because I seem to long for and reject intimacy at the same time - playing it safe. Even with people I love and trust.
So I checked out her web site - what a cool place to visit! I love her "10 things I wish I'd known sooner". I'll suggest her book to my book group for sure.
That's awesome, Sally! Exactly what this Women's Wednesday Weblink is all about -- connecting women in so many wonderful ways!
Please keep us posted if your club ends up discussing the book.
