Joan Didion and Nora Ephron have both written, by changes grimly and hilariously, about the indignities of getting more mature. Now comes Jane Juska, laying bare (literally) everything no-one has yet said about life in the old age. With her quality wit, unsparing vision for details, and famously frank views on gender issues, Juska, writer of the best-selling memoir A Round-Heeled Woman, talks gender, the fluctuations of body parts well below the neck, and the indomitable human being need for interconnection, whatever a woman's years. Jane Juska was born in 1933, was reared in small-town Ohio, and was raised at the College or university of Michigan and the College or university of California - Berkeley. She educated high school British for 33 years, educated college and prison classes for five, and then gone in search of men to provide her help and comfort. Her advertising in the New York Review of Literature - "Before I change 68, I would like to have a lot of gender with a man I like" - helped bring her undreamed of success. She composed two books about that search: A Round-Heeled Woman and Unaccompanied Women. Since that time, her essays have made an appearance in Vogue and Self applied, in a variety of anthologies, and online at the Huffington Post and wowOwow. Her book reviews come in the San Francisco Chronicle. Lately, she remaining her Berkeley home for life in the mountains nearby to her grandchildren and their parents. She's at last completed a novel, Mrs. Bennet Has Her Say, about Delight and Prejudice's foolish mom as she might have been at 15. At present she is focusing on a last-ditch memoir about maturing. This is a brief audiobook shared by Shebooks - high quality fiction, memoir, and journalism for girls, by women.
