You will laugh (and cry a little) on your way through this
thoroughly enjoyable read. Gloria's book is a compilation of mostly
very funny highlights of her life - beginning at age six and
capping off with a "tryst" in her eighties. The daughter of
"Russian Intelligentsia" parents who emigrated from Kiev and
Odessa, she grew up in Chicago with her two screwball older
brothers and, after World War II, migrated to Washington, D.C. with
her young husband, Herbert Liebenson. Although Gloria's voice is
quintessentially American, evoking memories of Erma Bombeck, one is
reminded as well, of Fanny Brice and Molly Goldberg. This is really
an urban version of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.
