Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ellen
Goodman s latest collection, Keeping in
Touch, brilliantly charts the course of the
first half of the Eighties. With insight, wit
and intelligence, Goodman makes sense
of the chaotic and often confounding is-
sues at the center of our lives.
0n women: "The woman of another era
who married her architecture and be-
came a housewife is now a working wife
with the double work load of a societal
bigamist."
0n star wars: "Our only real weapon
is that familiar and flawed software
called the human mind."
On work: "For all the talk about stress,
there is still a real tension between the
life we want for ourselves and the work
we want out of others"
0n surrogate mothers:"1 never expected
to see a new breed of entrepreneurs
arrive on the scene hanging out shingles
that offer Wombs for Rent.
0n high-tech terrors: "We are much
more vulnerable to the single computer
byte gone awry and the sole terrorist
gone mad.The more centralized our
world, the easier it is to sabotage."
On corporate love: "The business world
is being fed the illusion that they can
and, indeed, should manage emotions by
removing them from the workplace."
0n the cult of midlife bestiary: "Those of
us who failed to look like Brooke Shields
at seventeen can now fail to look like
Victoria Principal at thirty-three and like
Linda Evans at forty-one and like Sophia
Loren at fifty."
