Rebecca Mead profiles the best-selling novelist Jennifer Weiner, who takes the literary media to task for being biased against female writers and readers.
"I'm going to die alone, and my dog's going to eat my face, and no one will find us until the smell seeps out under the door." — Cannie Shapiro, the template for Jennifer Weiner's heroines: clever, quippy women whose dress size is well into double digits.
