The Statue of Liberty is Cracking Up never falls into sentiment for sentiment's sake and the humor is real, the kind all of us can identify with." Rod McKuen"It's a sensible, cheerful work about divorce, children, money, sex and how to smile through the agony. The tone is rueful, sentimental, and as down to earth as a family court hearing. Wise, funny and marvelously to-the-point." Los Angeles Times"With warmth, humor, and a great spirit of adventure, this book offers more insight into modern life than any I have read in recent years. Full of wit and wisdom, it speaks to anyone who is, or ever has been, married." Pat Loud, author of Pat Loud: A Woman's Story and one of the subjects of the groundbreaking documentary An American Family"Even if your marraige is safe, Bachmann and Curran will give you plenty of laughs."
