Prudence Mackintosh comes close to answering the question “What sets Texas women apart?” In this endlessly entertaining book, she writes with both a wry sense of humor and an insider’s compassion, giving us a fascinating, nose against the glass look into the world of privileged, educated, well-married, well connected, mostly white women. Sneaking Out
SNEAKING OUT recounts life with her adolescent sons as they race headlong to first jobs, first driver’s licenses, first girlfriends and first flight away from the family nest. She also follows them into the college years. Along the way, she offers wise and witty reflections on being a woman at midlife, seeing her sons through the beginning of their adult lives and her parents through the end of theirs. |
