Marianne Fuchs spends her childhood dominated by her fiercely Irish-Catholic mother. Her mother decides what she wears, where she goes to school, what she majors in. Marianne decides it's time for independence. This feminine Candide packs up her meager belongings and moves to Los Angeles. Not only is L.A. the center of excitement, both good and bad, it's a long way from her mother. But life in L.A. is not all the media makes it out to be. For one thing, it's expensive! She also discovers that it's hard to meet people; she doesn't seem to fit in anywhere. This small-town, sheltered young woman suffers from culture shock. She experiences a lot of 'firsts'. She sees a porn film, she sees a naked man on stage, she gets HBO! After being immersed in sex she begins to think her mother is right; maybe Los Angeles is Sodom. She has a lot of adjusting to do. Fortunately, life in Los Angeles is not all sex. She joins a softball team. She handles an unreasonable boss. And she finds love-or at least a severe case of 'like'. Time and distance give her courage to stand up to her mother, another 'first'. Unfortunately, that doesn't turn out how she'd like. But she faces her future bravely-until she's evicted from her apartment. She wanted adventure but she's finding that most adventures are uncomfortable things--and that very little in life goes according to plan. When her boyfriend suggests marriage, she hesitates. Is it the smart thing to do? Or is she replacing her mother with a husband?
