Married to a successful New York fashion photographer and mother of two children, aged eight and five, Carol is tormented with overwhelming doubts about the worth and meaning of her life, having squandered personal gifts and advantages of class. She considers herself an abject failure-as a creative professional, in her personal relations, and as a mother. But her biggest battle is with alcohol.
