Judy Blume: A Life
Mark Oppenheimer

For generations of readers, Judy Blume’s novels said what no one else would. With books like Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret and Deenie, she transformed children’s literature into something frank, candid, and deeply human. Drawing on extensive interviews and archival material, journalist Mark Oppenheimer traces Blume’s rise from suburban housewife to one of the most influential writers of the twentieth century.
