Item description from seller

Challenging accepted views of growing old, and offering ways to get the best out of life, this anthology of writings is by six women, all over 60, who write about themselves, their lives, their changing attitudes, their hopes and their fears. They show how age and infirmity need not be a barrier to fun, laughter and growth. By sharing their experiences and thoughts, the authors encourage readers to be "disgraceful" too; to try out new ambitions and use their own voices without fear of judgement and censure; to discard old identities and start being who they really want to be; and to learn to age with a sense of self-esteem and playfulness. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Store description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we’re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.…
