Jean Carroll--possibly the liveliest woman in the world and author of the "Ask E. Jean" advice column in Elle Magazine, realized that her eight million readers and question-writers all seemed to have one thing in common--problems caused by men--she hit the road. Crisscrossing the country with her blue-haired poodle, Lewis Carroll, E. Jean stopped in every town named after a woman between Eden, Vermont and Tallulah, Louisiana to ask women the crucial question: What Do We Need Men For? E. Jean gave her rollicking road trip a sly, stylish turn when she deepened the story, creating a list called "The Most Hideous Men of My Life," and began to reflect on her own sometimes very dark history with the opposite sex. What advice would she have given to her past selves--as Miss Cheerleader USA and Miss Indiana University? Or as the fearless journalist, television host, and eventual advice columnist she became? E. Jean intertwines the stories of the fascinating people she meets on her road trip with her "horrible history with the male sex" (including mafia bosses, media titans, boyfriends, husbands, a serial killer, and a president), creating a decidedly dark yet hopeful, hilarious, and thrilling narrative. Her answer to the question What Do We Need Men For? will shock men and delight women. 650 0 $a Men $v Humor. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $v Humor. 655 7 $a Humor. $2 lcgft 941 $a 8 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240710045037.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012024623.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909054351.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215014501.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20190824012621.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20190810010737.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20190808011116.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20190716013249.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2F4FDBC4A78F11E99DEDB91B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
