But when she stumbled across her son Teddy's old baby sling during a halfhearted basement cleaning, something in her snapped. So: the dog went into the sling, Judy felt connected to another living being, and she's repeated the process every day since.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLife hasn't gone according to Judy's plan. Her career as a children's book author offered a glimpse of success before taking an embarrassing nose dive. Teddy, now a teenager, treats her with some combination of mortification and indifference. Her best friend is dying. And her husband, Gary, has become a pot-addled professional \"snackologist\" who she can't afford to divorce. On top of it all, she has a painfully ironic job writing articles for a self-help website--a poor fit for someone seemingly incapable of helping herself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWickedly funny and surprisingly tender, \u003cem\u003eSeparation Anxiety\u003c\/em\u003e offers a frank portrait of middle-aged limbo, examining the ebb and flow of life's most important relationships. Tapping into the insecurities and anxieties that most of us keep under wraps, and with a voice that is at once gleefully irreverent and genuinely touching, Laura Zigman has crafted a new classic for anyone taking fumbling steps toward happiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Laura Zigman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ecco Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\/1\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8\" H x 5.3\" L x 0.9\" W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780062909084\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kotton Kandy Skies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54172964159787,"sku":"9780062909084","price":21.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/2978\/5899\/files\/9780062909084.jpg?v=1784319407","url":"https:\/\/2trc11-eq.myshopify.com\/products\/separation-anxiety-laura-zigman-paperback","provider":"Kotton Kandy Skies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
