From AudioFile
In this proud, poignant tale, four thirty-something African-American women rely on one another for love and support. McMillan's portrait of these friends, who struggle with differing aspects of loneliness, is indelibly etched with love and understanding. Her empathy is vividly realized in her reading of the work. McMillan's passion is infectious. Deft character-ization and a rich, resonant narration sweep the listener along in the beauty and grace of a vision ably articulated in this powerful reading. R.W.B.

Mass Market Paperback. Condition: Good. Please see any and all photos connected with this listing. A bit scuffed but all pages intact and legible. Good reading copies. Clean. Store Stamped. --- --- WAITING TO EXHALE --- (The first book in the Waiting to Exhale series) --- At 36 Savannah Jackson seems to have it made; she's attractive, and has a job in TV, money in the bank, and a nice home. In fact she has everything she needs except a man. In their different ways, each of her three best friends faces exactly the same problem. -- A story of friendship between four African American women who lean on each other while "waiting to exhale": waiting for that man who will take their breath away. --- MR. BEDFORD AND THE MUSES --- In this collection of five short stories and a novella, Ms. Godwin is at her best. In the title novella, "Mr. Bedford," a young would-be writer spends time in England under the strange and watchful eye of a rather unusual elderly couple; in "Amanuensis," a charming college student cares for a famous but blocked novelist, with unpredictable results; and in "The Angry Year," a rebellious student is drawn to two different kinds of men until she discovers what she has been running to and from.
