'Eternal optimism is the lifeblood of Maggie Moran, mother of Jesse and Daisy, married to Ira for twenty-eight years.  Maggie has an inexhaustible passion for sorting out other people's problems: where happiness does not exist she must create it.  Love is something she can will into being and she pursues her quarry with the emotional equivalent of a butterfly net.  But Maggie is heading for fifty, the time of the thickening waist and of the diet forever deferred; a time when the songs of one's adolescence bring tears to the eyes.'
