Penetrating and thoroughly entertaining, Ellen Goodman's collection keeps us in touch with an awesome range of events and concerns--virtually everything that matters. Ellen Goodman (born April 11, 1941) is an American journalist and syndicated columnist. She won a Pulitzer Prize in 1980. She worked as an associate editor at The Boston Globe from 1967. She announced her retirement on January 1, 2010. She earned the American Society of Newspaper Editors' Distinguished Writing Award (1980). In 1988, Goodman won the Hubert H. Humphrey Civil Rights Award from the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights. In 2008, she won the Ernie Pyle Award for Lifetime Achievement from the National Society of Newspaper Columnists. Goodman is also the author of Turning Points, Close to Home and At Large. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: Humor, intelligence, and not a little common sense inform the dozens of pieces in this third collection from a Pulitzer Prizewinning columnist. Syndicated in some 400 newspapers, Goodman, in these columns, writes about people, issues and popular inanities with a skill that makes her a master of the 750-word form. Her recent remarriage and "encounter'' with middle age make her observations on love, gender and midlife especially telling. With Goodman, however, half the delight lies in anticipating where her inquisitive mind will take her next. She brings us from Liz Taylor's need for `privacy,' to aerial burials, to the Nancy Drew books, to thoughtful examinations of AIDS and other topics of controversy and concern. This is certain to please. Excerpt from a commentary in the Library Journal: Fans of the Pulitzer Prize- winning columnist will enjoy this collection of her columns written since 1981; those who do not know her work will find this volume a fine introduction. Goodman's columns generally appear on the editorial or op-ed page. Her themes are ones not found frequently on editorial pages: commitment, friendship, self-doubt, work life, social values. Her tone ranges from amusing to acerbic). Timely and to the point, these essays are a good choice. Among some of the topics addressed are: Milne, Elizabeth Taylor, Pac-Man, Doris Lessing, Nancy Reagan, Maureen Reagan, Margaret Mead, George Gilder, Abortion, Commitment, Relationship, Coed, Missiles, Chic, Feminist, Baby Fae, AIDS, Battered Wife, Censorship, Hinckley, and Politics.
