Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

E. Jean, as she styles herself, hosts the first interactive advice show on CNBC's America's Talking Network and also writes an advice column for Elle magazine. The letters in this collection, taken from those sources, come principally from women who indicate that, in their cases, the women's movement has failed utterly. That many of them are sex-obsessed is hardly surprising in a sex-obsessed nation, but what is illuminating is that they appear to define themselves solely in terms of the men?or the absence thereof?in their lives. But more alarming is the pervasive lack of a sense of self; many of the advice-seekers are hesitant to act for their own benefit lest they offend family or friends or co-workers or whomever. E. Jean is hip, breezy and fun to read, although men may worry about falling victim to aggressive women egged on by E. Jean's recommendations that they get out there and grab what they want.

From Library Journal

Carroll, host of a cable TV program known as Ask E. Jean, here offers humor-tinged advice for those who consider themselves too hip for Ann Landers.

More About the Author

Hi, dolls! I write the ASK E. JEAN column in ELLE magazine, the world's largest (and coolest) fashion magazine. I live in a little cabin on an island (it's about the size of a mattress) in upstate New York. I used to write for SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE and was a contributing editor to ESQUIRE and OUTSIDE. I always wanted to write a graphic novel and title it "OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB SELECTION," and fill it with cute pictures of my dogs (a Tibetan Mastiff, a pit bull, and a standard poodle----all rescued). I have noticed one thing about writing: when I get stuck I find that walking into the kitchen sixty or seventy times to eat something really helps.
