Summary
A stirring look at three women striving to forge their own paths amidst the wide-open plains of the American Northwest: a lawyer who finds herself contending with both office sexism and a hostage situation; a wife and mother whose determination to build her dream home puts her at odds with the men in her life; and a young law student who forms an ambiguous bond with a lonely ranch hand. A portrait emerges of flawed but strong-willed individuals in the process of defining themselves"Unfolding in self-contained but interlocking episodes, 'Certain women' navigates the subtle shifts in personal desire and social expectation that unsettle the circumscribed lives of its characters: a lawyer ... forced to subdue a troubled client; a wife and mother ... whose plans to construct her dream home reveal fissures in her marriage; and a night-school teacher ... who forms a tenuous bond with a lonely ranch hand ... whose longing for connection delivers an unexpected jolt of emotional immediacy."--, Container
