Four Ways to be a Woman

A powerful friendship has survived between four women since their convent schooldays. Once they had believed they could do anything they wanted. Now, rapidly approaching forty, they are having to take stock. Hip photographer and party girl. Fiercely independent, she doesn't have a maternal bone in her body. So what is she doing becoming involved with an ex-Catholic priest who can't wait to settle down, make up for lost time and reproduce? Top public relations consultant. Smart and affluent, she is also disillusioned and eager for a change of pace. She wants to have a child, but her partner isn't interested. What is she to do? New Age healer and single parent. She hasn't had a relationship for ten years and is now looking for a good woman. But how does she find her? Well known painter, married forever to steady, reliable Matthew, she has been trying, unsuccessfully, to have a baby. But little does she know that there are graver problems on the horizon.
