ALL GROWN UP
A Novel
ALL GROWN UP by Jami Attenberg is an enthralling confession of a woman who contends with the outside world's assumptions of who she should be.
Andrea is a single, childless 40-something woman who tries to navigate family, sexuality, friendships and her career as a failed artist, but battles with thoughts and desires that few people would want to admit to. Told through a series of inventively linked vignettes, in a language that shimmers with rage and intimacy, ALL GROWN UP delves into the psyche of a flawed but mesmerizing character, all while scrutinizing the present-day struggles that she inhabits. ALL GROWN UP is powerfully intelligent, wickedly funny and brave. There is such great emotional velocity on the pages, you will recognize yourself in Andrea's thoughts and actions whether you want to admit it or not. If we read fiction for truth then ALL GROWN UP contains a truthfulness about what it means to be a 21st century woman that we have not seen before.
