Romance and dating can be such a challenge these days - it's not always easy to tell if your potential mate is fun or freaky, normal or neurotic (or, perhaps worse, neither). Writer Eve Lederman has been there and decided to share what she's learned in this humorous how-to. Featuring the illustrations of everybody's favorite retro artist, Shag's Little Book of Love is not your mother's guide to love and romance! Lederman offers hilarious advice on the everyday details of romance and dating, and navigating the minefields of flirtations, entanglements, and hanky-panky. There's the instant love letter (to make your mate swoon - or smack you upside the head); first date do's and don'ts (don't stroke her wattle); suitable topics for discussion (Has there been an exciting natural disaster lately?); and more. Shag's sharp graphics add panache to this much-needed guide by the doyenne of dating.

Eve and Faye’s correspondence began with a simple letter about a bad job interview or bad hair day, seeking comfort from hundreds of miles away. As their adult lives unfolded, gender roles, career choices, and family relationships became fair game, subject to both scrutiny and hilarity as the Ledermans lovingly ridicule everyone in their path. In one letter, Faye laments, “Every time I apply mascara before an interview my eyelashes get all clumped together. I’m afraid if the interviewer catches my profile he’ll think I’m applying for the position of prostitute.” In another, Eve ponders their father’s ineptness. “If Mom left for the weekend, she’d return home to find Dad emaciated on the floor, tin cans strewn around with bite marks.” Ultimately, the sisters reassure each other that they are not alone in their search for the ultimate man (“a big, buff, macho, kind, sensitive, feminist”), the ideal job, or the perfect hair removal method. The Ledermans emerge as feisty, independent women who confront their femininity but aren’t confined by it. Instead, they are able to laugh long and hard at themselves, enticing and empowering readers to do the same.
