Title: The Perfect Elizabeth
Subtitle: a tale of two sisters
Description: "Liza is a would-be poet who spends miserable days as a legal secretary, while her sister, Bette, is teaching at a prestigious university and writing her dissertation on Toast in the English Novel. Bette has even taken to eating only that which the characters she is writing about would eat: nice cups of tea, boiled egg on toast, mincemeat ... Liza is a bit concerned. She is also concerned about the status of her relationship with her actor boyfriend Gregor.

They are not living together, and that is a problem." "Then there is the issue of Liza's career, or the lack thereof. Can dog walking be considered a career? Liza is beginning to think so. Mercifully, Bette is merely a local phone call away." "By the end of this novel, the sisters have dealt with unemployment, infidelity, interfering parents, Hollywood, lemmings, a pregnancy, and a wedding."--BOOK JACKET.
