Alamo House

Austin native Sarah Bird is a journalist and screenwriter who has authored several novels showcasing humor and insight into human relationships. She pens a zany look at the lives of three sorority sisters at the University of Texas. Mary Jo's caustic comments about love and life can't conceal her confusion about both, but liberated baptist Fayrene and party girl Collie help Mary Jo cope in a white, patriarchal world. 'Sophisticated wit ... Endearingly eccentric characters.'-Kirkus Reviews
