Overview
The phenomenally popular artist wittily reveals the realities behind images of perfect women in midcentury marketing.
We can’t be good all the time, and no one knows it better than Anne Taintor. This generous collection of her most popular artwork includes more than 150 images in categories such as friendship (a real friend will help you hide the body), motherhood (WOW! I get to give birth AND change diapers!), money (screw the budget!), attitude (let a smirk be your umbrella), and more.
Also featuring an introduction by Taintor, this hilarious volume perfectly captures the deliciously sarcastic, snarky, and honest things that most women have found themselves thinking at one time or another. If you’re looking for trouble, look no further. . . .

Anne Taintor is a relatively good girl with a slightly checkered past. Much emulated, never replicated, she first began pairing vintage illustrations with witty sayings 25 years ago, cutting and gluing images at her kitchen table. She lives in a 1783 farmhouse in Maine.
