Synopsis

The Waiting Womb is a dark comedy about the torment and struggle of infertility treatments. Jill Sayre writes with ease, like a familiar girlfriend telling a personal story full of misadventures involving Pergonal psychosis, hostile vaginas, pompous fertility doctors, caffeine withdrawal, and sexual malfunctions. You will laugh and weep for Julia Leary and Alex Martin, two resourceful girlfriends who commiserate and muddle through the infertility cloud in their individual quests to have a child. Approximately 4.9 million American couples face some form of infertility. Through her characters, Ms. Sayre highlights what so many couples experience and crafts a satirical twist on the intimacies that most people are not comfortable talking about. Ms. Sayre delivers strong female characters and plenty of laughs to make this book an enjoyable weekend read.
