On the third floor of the Strand the other night, women with streaks
of gray in their hair, women with lavender cardigans, women who brought
their husbands mingled cheerfully against a backdrop of richly hued
books. They talked and smiled and looked at the other women. They
huddled around a table with cheese and grapes, waiting for their pour of
the wine.
This was a reading for a new book of essays, “Drinking Diaries,” all
written by female authors and edited by Leah Odze Epstein and Caren
Osten Gerszberg, who started a blog by that name in 2009. The event was billed as “an evening full of drink,” and it was, even if ... newyorker.
