Unhinged Fences Susan Bird

To Sunday O'Neil, the white-picket-fence scenario, the American dream, was how she planned her life, until she opened the gate of that secure fence and walked through it. Growing up in the late 1960s watching the lovely weekly TV series of Father Knows Best, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, and The Donna Reed Show all affirmed her expectations. Sunday O'Neil's parents and relatives also avowed her beliefs. They all had wonderful secure homes with children and a happy, healthy environment. The wives looked after the home and children while the husbands worked and provided a stable life and also handled all the major problems of the family. Sunday O'Neil discovers she is naive when she finds her dream boy and marries him. Her marriage fails and her white picket fence becomes unhinged, and so does she. Thrust into a world she never imagined, she embarks on a journey of sex, booze, and rock and roll. Take a peek into the unexpected life of the girl next door who puts her Susie Homemaker apron away and puts the X in sex. Will Sunday O'Neil find her white picket fence?
