What It's Like to Live Now
In 1968 Meredith Maran was expelled from her prestigious New York high school for leading anti-war protests. Nearly thirty years later, with an ex-husband, two teenage sons, a female lover, and a mortgaged dream house on the edge of the Oakland ghetto, she's still trying to change the world ... but this time it's personal.

In What It's Like To Live Now, Meredith Maran explores the gap between the dreams of the '60s and the realities of the '90s, in a book filled with uncommon insight—and her own wickedly subversive sense of humor. Reading What It's Like To Live Now is like having dinner with your funniest, most unshockable woman friend. You won't want it to end.
