SUMMARY:Book Signing with Amy Dickinson
DESCRIPTION:Amy Dickinson\nReading & Signing for “The Might Queens of Freeville”\n5/6 at 7:00 pm\nBorders\, 6103 N Lincoln Ave\, Chicago (773) 267-4822\nFive years ago\, after an exhaustive countrywide search\, the Chicago Tribune announced Amy Dickinson as the next Ann Landers. They wanted a contemporary voice and they found it. Bracingly witty and honest\, Amy’s voice is more Nora Ephron than Dear Abby. Readers love her for her brutal honesty\, her small-town values\, and for the fact that her motto is “I make the mistakes so you don’t have to.” Her advice column\, “Ask Amy\,” appears daily in more than 150 newspapers nationwide\, read by more than 22 million readers. In The Mighty Queens of Freeville\, Amy Dickinson takes those mistakes and spins them into a remarkable story. This is the tale of Amy and her daughter and the women in her family who helped raise them after Amy’s husband abruptly left. It is a story of frequent failures and surprising successes\, as Amy starts and loses careers\, bumbles through blind dates and adult education classes\, travels across country with her daughter and their giant tabby cat\, and tries to come to terms with the family’s aptitude for “dorkitude.”
