Synopsis
Beginning as a graduation speech at Mount Holyoke College in 1999, Anna Quindlen's BEING PERFECT provides a caution to young women about trying too hard to meet expectations created by others--family, friends, teachers, community, or society in general. Women, she says, should create their own individual standards, and those are what they must try and live up to. Quindlen's eminently sensible, and sensitive, book is all about finding the strength not to be perfect but just to be yourself. As she puts it, quoting from a t-shirt someone gave her, "Well-Behaved Women Don't Make History."
