Introduction

(A best-seller and New York Times Notable Book of the Year, Shes Come Undone whisks you on a wild journey through life with an unforgettable heroine, both heartbreaking and comical. In award-winning author Wally Lambs remarkable coming-of-age odyssey, a lonely girl satisfies her cravings for love and happiness with her own unsettling solutions. Reeling from her parents bitter divorce, 13-year-old Dolores Price retreats to the safety of her bedroom. There she fortifies herself with potato chips, six packs of soda, and bags of cookies while attractive families laugh at life on her TV. When adulthood forces her on her own, she rolls out at a startling 257 poundsleft with only her cynicism and wisecracks to protect her. Wally Lamb paints such a realistic picture of a young womans inner world that youll have trouble convincing yourself he never was a teenaged girl. With narrator Linda Stephens dramatic narration, youll be cheering for Dolores every step of the way as she stumbles through victories and setbacks.
