Description: "Anne Schroeder's personal essays ... tell a woman's story of coming of age during the Baby Boomer generation and growing into greater wholeness. All the ages of womanhood are covered: girlhood, young adulthood, middle age up into the author's fifties as she shifts focus to caring for the two older matriarchs in her life. Schroeder uses the Greek goddess of love, beauty, and sexual rapture as a metaphor for loving life in all its forms."--Review from www.amazon.com
