As some of you know, Rachel is a close friend of mine from my 1980s college daze. Her new book comes out in April and it is sure to be a best-seller – especially given how she became a mom at 45.
The full title is Girl Walks into a Bar . . .: Comedy Calamities, Dating Disasters, and a Midlife Miracle, and the description is as follows:
Her career at a low point, Dratch suddenly had time for yoga, dog- sitting, learning Spanish – and dating. After all, what did a forty-something single woman living in New York have to lose? Resigned to childlessness but still hoping for romance, Dratch was out for drinks with a friend when she met John. Handsome and funny, after only six months of dating long-distance, he became the inadvertent father of her wholly unplanned, undreamed-of child, and moved to New York to be a dad. With riotous humor, Dratch recounts breaking the news to her bewildered parents, the awe of her single friends, and the awkwardness of a baby-care class where the instructor kept tossing out the f-word.
