Amy Bloom
Men do not know what they do not know, and women should not tell them.
Amy Bloom
I wasn't surprised to find myself in the back of Mr. Klein's store, wearing only my undershirt and panties, surrounded by sable.
Amy Bloom
Be real and be unashamed, even of your faults. I do truly know what my husband is made of and vice versa.
Amy Bloom
