The women of Stepford are not all that they seem...All the beautiful people live in idyllic Stepford, Connecticut, an affluent, suburban Eden populated with successful, satisfied hubbies and beautiful, dutiful wives. For Joanna Eberhart, newly arrived with her husband and two children, it all seems too good to be true - from the sweet Welcome Wagon lady to all those cheerful, friendly faces in the supermarket checkout lines. But just beneath the town's flawless surface, something is sordid and wrong - something abominable with roots in the local Men's Association. And it may already be too late for Joanna to save herself from being devoured by Stepford's hideous perfection.

I really enjoyed this book. The first from Ira Levin and definately not the last. I enjoyed the introduction by Chuck Palahniuk, its good too. I liked the characters and how they change, the family dynamic's, the setting of Stepford.
Recommended read.

It was all and nothing like the movie :-). It's a genuinely creepy story written with a feminist touch that you can't help but appreciate.A very short read, only a bit over a hundred pages and if you get the opportunity it's a decent page turner.

Took this one out of the bookring.
Hadn't heard of this before (as a movie, but I don't like watching tele or movies) ... but sounds intriguing !

Well-written but not really my cup of tea.
