520    "At twenty-five, as her wedding date approached, [the 
       author] began to feel trapped ... by the unsettling idea 
       that it was hard to be at once married and free. [She] 
       wanted her life to be different. She wanted her marriage 
       to be different. And she found in the strangely 
       captivating story of another restless young woman 
       determined to live without constraints both an enticement 
       and a challenge, Barbara Newhall Follett ... [who] in 
       December 1939, when she was not much older than Laura, 
       walked out of her apartment ... and vanished without a 
       trace. [This memoir] is a riveting mystery and a piercing 
       exploration of marriage and convention that asks deep and 
       uncomfortable questions: Why do we give up on our 
       childhood dreams? Is marriage a golden noose? Must we find
       ourselves in the same row houses with Pottery Barn lamps 
       telling our kids to behave? "--Amazon.com.
