Foreword
While the negative aspects of egotism and ambition are all too apparent, it is also true that for a man or woman to function adequately and maturely in a society, it is necessary to have a certain amount of healthy self-confidence.
The successful businessman, the woman who rises in her chosen profession despite tremendous odds, the serenely happy and efficient housewife all are imbued with the self-confidence necessary for them to skillfully carry out their chosen tasks. Without it they would find it difficult to do well, and would possibly fail.
When a man or woman lacks self-confidence on a sexual level, it can be apparent in every aspect of their lives. It is often necessary to be sure of one's identity as a man or woman in order to be successful.
Lisa, the woman in this book, suffers from a lack of sexual self-assurance. Buried behind the drab, stern facade of her librarian job, she at last realizes that it is a waste for her to hide her natural beauty and sensuality. Thus it is only when she learns to appreciate herself and she at last breaks free of the deeply imbedded strictures of her moralistic upbringing that she becomes a confident and successful adult.
TURNED ON LIBRARIAN is a novel about a woman's struggle to free herself of deep-seated fears and inhibitions and take her place as a fully functioning, independent and knowledgeable adult.
