Carole Weaver

With a doctorate in English and a lifetime of adventure in travel, matrimony, single parenting, and fund-raising—and a few side trips into performance art—Carole Weaver offers her varied skills in this saga of survival through meditation on beauty, oddness, and the work of love that is art. In her early 60s, with her kids grown and gone, she has sold her big house and moved into a tiny apartment. While still raising money for a woman’s college, she’s really hoping for some bit parts on Broadway. Then fate deals her two hands: a fascinating new boyfriend and breast cancer. There are complications, especially with the cancer; but somehow her resilience, her passion for the man, and even her overly educated mind pull her through. This is a Cinderella story for an aging feminist in the 21st century.
