Let 'em Eat Cake by Susan Jedren

Let 'em Eat Cake by Susan Jedren

When the heat in Brooklyn climbs to a hundred, there's only one thing worse than being a delivery man for HomeMade Cakes. It's being a delivery woman for HomeMade. Because Anna, the feisty heroine of this earthy and irreverent novel, has to put up with things that her male co-workers can't imagine, from a boss who despises women to storekeepers who feel her up when they aren't trying to rip her off for the price of a carton of Chocos. As realized by Susan Jedren, Anna is a true representative of blue-collar, no-glitz New York, a valiant single mother whose attempts to keep her head above water - and her dignity intact - are both hilarious and uplifting. Let 'Em Eat Cake is a novel for anyone who has ever worked at a demeaning job and dreamed of dancing on the merchandise, a book as real as a corner bodega and as refreshing as an open hydrant in the middle of a scorching summer.

Susan Jedren, a former Teamster, drove and delivered snack cakes in New York City. Following that she attended the Columbia MFA Writing Program.
