Peggy Orenstein to speak at Pleasanton Public Library
Thursday, February 28, 2008, 7pm

Peggy Orenstein's WAITING FOR DAISY is about doing all the things you swore you’d never do to get something you weren’t even sure you wanted. It’s about being a woman in a confusing, contradictory time. It’s about testing the limits of a loving marriage. And it’s about trying (and trying and trying) to have a baby.
 
Peggy Orenstein is the author of Schoolgirls: Young Women, Self-Esteem, and the Confidence Gap, and Flux: Women on Sex, Work, Love, Kids, and Life in a Half-Changed World
 
Thursday February 28, 2008 at 7pm in the Pleasanton Public Library Meeting Room.
400 Old Bernal Ave., Pleasanton, CA 94566.
 
 Library programs are free and open to all. No registration required.
