Single girls [large print] : a novel / John Searles.
"In 1965, Helen Gurley Brown is fresh off the success of her book Sex and the Single Girl, a revolutionary call to women urging them to embrace their single years and enjoy sex without shame. Moved by thousands of letters from readers, she dreams of editing her own magazine, where she can dispense her unconventional wisdom. Then, she gets her shot: three issues to turn around the flailing Cosmopolitan. Helen quickly assembles a team of savvy single girls, and their lives become the stuff of magazine cover lines: the Books Editor's doomed romance with a married man--and her revenge. The (unofficial!) Sex Editor's soak in the first champagne-glass hot tub, which takes a very wrong turn ... and more. Single Girls stretches from Helen's controversial tenure back to her youth, envisioning the devastations and people who made her a legend, and re-creates the thrill of being young when a new world was possible for a single girl if only she was fearless enough to grab it."-- Provided by publisher.
