With engaging chapter titles like 'A Lady and Her Liquor' and 'The Pleasures of a Single Bed,' along with a new preface by author Laurie Graff (You Have to Kiss A Lot of Frogs), LIVE ALONE AND LIKE IT is sure to appeal to live-aloners and many other readers alike. Hillis takes readers through the fundamentals of living alone, including the importance of creating a hospitable environment at home, cultivating hobbies that keep her there ('for no woman can accept an invitation every night without coming to grief'), the question of whether single ladies may entertain men at home (the answer may surprise you!), and many more. LEARN who you can seek assistance from if you live alone & dont have a family member or friend who can act as.

Hillis, a true bon vivant, was sick and tired of hearing single women carping about their living arrangements and lonely lives this book is her invaluable wake-up call for single women to take control and enjoy their circumstances. Though it was 1936 when the Vogue editor first shared her wisdom with her fellow singletons, the tome has been passed lovingly through the generations, and is even more apt today than when it was first published. Although determined to write a how-to book, Miss Hillis was not. Thus begins Marjorie Hillis' archly funny, gently prescriptive manifesto for single women. In 1936 she wrote Live Alone and Like It, the superlative guide for bachelor ladies. 'Whether you view your one-woman ménage as Doom or Adventure, you need a plan, if you are going to make the best of it.'
