Query: Sisterly Conflicts Explored

I bogged down part way; perhaps the sisters' estrangement was too harrowing. Picked it up again after the holiday and zipped through to the end. This story of two sisters and their resentments starts out strongly. The abrupt career change of Rose from lawyer to dog-walker after being crossed in love was interesting. Maggie's evolution from unemployable dyslexic bombshell to homeless at Harvard to darling of the geriatic set stretched the imagination.This had a lot to recommend it, but also drawbacks in its writing. The incidents, dialogue, and interpersonal relations captured the modern problems confronting today's contemporary young women in an urban setting.update 1/28/05: I just finished Good In Bed by Weiner. Enjoyed it much more than this one.
