"Very curious as to how autobiographical this book is! Many of the facts of Juliet's life match those that I know of Waldman's; --- Both Harvard Law grads --- and former public defenders --- who quit work to become SAHM's (or maybe WAHM's) --- both married to men in nontraditional writing jobs (Chabon - Pulitzer-winning author of Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. Peter, screenwriter) --- both hubbies interested in comics, action figures --- Neither Juliet nor Ayelet took hubby's last name --- both live in upper echelons of large Californian cities"
Might explain a lot about her opinion of a.p, if the book is even partly autobiographical... (ie, if the way she learned about it was through the poorly translated opinion of someone who _wanted_ to believe that poly people thought cheating was ok)
