Store Stamped. --- --- WAITING TO EXHALE --- (The first book in the Waiting to Exhale series) --- At 36 Savannah Jackson seems to have it made; she's attractive, and has a job in TV, money in the bank, and a nice home. In fact she has everything she needs except a man. In their different ways, each of her three best friends faces exactly the same problem. -- A story of friendship between four African American women who lean on each other while "waiting to exhale": waiting for that man who will take their breath away. --- MR. BEDFORD AND THE MUSES --- In this collection of five short stories and a novella, Ms. Godwin is at her best. In the title novella, "Mr. Bedford," a young would-be writer spends time in England under the strange and watchful eye of a rather unusual elderly couple; in "Amanuensis," a charming college student cares for a famous but blocked novelist, with unpredictable results; and in "The Angry Year," a rebellious student is drawn to two different kinds of men until she discovers what she has been running to and from.
