A multi-layered memoir of transformation, Out of My Shoes weaves together events from the life of the narrator who grew up during the 1940s and '50s in a sheltered Southern California environment. While attending Vassar College, Meredith marries an Ivy League graduate from a wealthy New York family. They move to Berkeley, where she becomes a traditional faculty wife and mother. Eventually, troubled by her life of privilege, she leaves her marriage to pursue her interests in photography, writing, and social activism.
