In the expert hands of fourteen unsurpassed storytellers, being a housewife takes on a whole new meaning.

Go behind the lace curtains and PTA smiles to explore the often mind-numbing reality of being a housewife. You'll laugh, you'll scream, you'll recognize yourself or your best friend in each of these deadly situations.
