Being an advice columnist means you've heard it all. What it does not mean is that you get everything right in your own life. Margo Howard, better known as "Dear Prudence," then "Dear Margo," can testify to that. But before being a syndicated columnist, before writing for national magazines, before becoming an advice maven, Margo was the beloved only child of Jules Lederer, the founder of Budget Rent-a-Car, and Eppie Lederer-known to the world as "Ann Landers."

She was from a time and place where young women went to college and then got married. So that is what she did-and not just once.

EAT, DRINK AND REMARRY is the charming and candid memoir of a woman who goes from blushing bride to rice-scarred veteran. With wit, humor and twenty-twenty hindsight she reveals lessons learned from the men in her life. In a no-holds-barred account of the life she's lived there is confirmation that understanding love, and of course people, comes only when we're ready, and that sometimes it really is possible to start over and get things just right.
