Cathy Guisewite, after decades penning the comic strip “Cathy,” sets down her ink pen and takes up her word processor. It's a bit disconcerting at first, all the words, no pictures, lots of comedy, but drama, too. The angst is still there, roads untaken, be they the road to a happy marriage or simply the road to a contented hour with a child. If you are a Debbie or a Linda or a Cathy yourself, you will see your life in these pages, wrestling with the issues we women have been asked to take on, career or motherhood, caring for your elderly parents, letting go of our children, marriage and relationships.
If you have always liked “Cathy” you might like to give Guisewite a chance to share a bit more than she was able to say in a 10 x 14 inch comic strip.
