dry is done and the dishes are
clean and they have a few mo-
ments to think about their col-
lege days and their college
dreams and maybe wonder
where they all went and what
happened to their sorority sis-
ters and that great looking guy
they sat next to in Chemistry
201.
They may be tempted, at such
moments, to think about read-
ing Rona Jaffe's "reunion"
books.
Or they may even be tempted
to attend their next college reu-
nion. But they should know that
even Jaffe herself, the chronicler
of Ivy League get-togethers, was
"too scared" to attend any of her
Radcliffe reunions. After pub-
lishing 12 books and having at
least one of them made into a
film, after hobnobbing with such
stars as Marilyn Monroe and
Paul Newman and Shelly Win-
ters in courses at the Actors'
Studio in New York, after ap-
pearing on every major talk
show in the country, Rona Jaffe
chickened out.
Whenever you go to your reu-
nion," she said, "you go back to
the scene of the crime. They
sent out a questionnaire that
asked me to bring pictures of
my children and husband to put

them on the bulletin board. I
didn't have any so I said I
couldn't go."
There's an irony somewhere
in there a parable of sorts. Rona
Jaffe, whose books are treasured
by millions of women, is not
that much different from her
readers. As she said of Ameri-
can women, "Everyone thinks
that everyone else is happy."
But if Jaffe had gone to her
class reunion, she probably
would not have been the only
one without a husband or with-
out children. But the fear that
she would stand out in the
crowd that she first joined when
she was a mere 15 years old
kept her far from Cambridge.
"We're all trained to put on a
good show," she said, "Not just
men have been forced to be
macho and pretend that every-
thing is all right. More than
anyone will ever realize or
admit — women have also been
forced to put on a good front."
Even Rona Jaffe, whose books
mirror women's fears, give a
voice to women's dreams, likes
to put on a good show. She, too,
enters into the conspiracy that
everything is O.K. But at least
her books tip us off that there is
a lie being lived in much of
America. ❑
