Don't take my word for it.....

...take Oprah's!

My friend Alice Eve Cohen, an incredibly talented playwright, performer and author has written a memoir. I cannot wait to read it. Now that it has been mentioned in O Magazine, I hope I can get a copy before they all sell out. Check out the fantastic write up below and click to read an excerpt.


What I Thought I Knew by Alice Eve Cohen


Solo theater artist Alice Eve Cohen knew that childbearing was simply impossible - her own mother had taken DES, and Alice had a deformed uterus, among other disqualifiers. So when what doctors misdiagnosed as a tumor turned out to be a 6 - month fetus, the 44 year - old Cohen had to wrestle with the clueless specialists, cavalier insurance companies, and her own no - see - um maternal instincts. Her darkly hilarious memoir, What I thought I Knew (Viking), is an unexpected bundle of joy.
