Description

The Bridge Ladies: A Memoir by Betsy Lerner For over fifty years, a group of women in New Haven have gathered every Monday afternoon to play bridge. Their weekly ritual is a constant in their lives, a source of comfort and companionship. As the author reflects on her own relationship with these women, she reveals a story of love, loss, and the complexities of female friendship. As Betsy Lerner looks back on her life, she realizes that the Bridge Ladies were more than just a group of elderly women playing cards - they were a symbol of resilience and community. Through their stories, she sheds light on the often-overlooked world of intergenerational relationships and the power of female bonds to transcend time and circumstance. This memoir is a heartwarming and humorous exploration of what it means to be a woman, a mother, and a friend. With wit and sensitivity, Betsy Lerner shares her own experiences with these remarkable women, revealing the beauty and depth of their lives.
