The Girl's Guide To Saving The World
Elinor Cook
A Girl's Guide to Chaos
by Cynthia Heimel
Synopsis
Ms. Heimel is a delightful, neo-feminist humorist best known for the hilarious and immortal Sex Tips for Girls .
She has taken material from that book and put it into the mouths of three characters in this one: Cynthia and her friends Cleo and Rita.
“These are the times that try a girl’s soul,” begins Cynthia, and then she and her friends proceed to tell us why the times are so trying and what they are doing to cope with them.
We learn about “The Great Boyfriend Crunch” and other facts of life for the contemporary heterosexual woman.
