Annie Proulx's memoir.
Front-Ranger:
I saw a store yesterday with a banner on the side that said "Hardware for Women." I briefly thought I'd send my mother there for her hardware needs; then I saw the sign on the front that said "Jewelry Store."

I wonder what they would sell in a store with a sign that said "Power Tools for Women"? ??? 8)

There's a store in San Francisco that fits this description, it's called "Good Vibrations."
Meanwhile, back to the topic. The sound recording of this book is ready for me to pick up at my local library!! And it looks like AP herself might be the narrator!! That in itself will help shed some light on this book and its motives, I think. There is another contributor mentioned...Joan Allen. I don't know anything about her. Stay tuned...

If she's a reader of the audio book, it's probably Joan Allen, who is a highly respected actress.
