Title: Kicking fifty
Description: Being a singleton of a 30-something may have its problems. Being one as you approach fifty and have a teenage daughter to boot would provide a challenge even to Jane Austen. Enter Jude Brautigan, divorcée, bookshop owner, daughter, mother, friend, and fierce letter writer. Kicking fifty, Jude finds herself sandwiched between a demented mum and a rarely sensible daughter--whose hormones rage in a direction opposite to her own, though not always with dissimalar consequences.
