About this listen

In this intimate and funny collection of essays on the sometimes confusing, sometimes poignant, sometimes hilarious condition of being a woman over 60, Susan Moon keeps her sense of humor and she keeps her listener fully engaged. Among the pieces she has included here are an essay on the gratitude she feels for her weakening bones; observations on finding herself both an orphan and a matriarch following the death of her mother; musings on her tendency to regret the past; thoughts on how not to be afraid of loneliness; appreciation for the inner tomboy; and celebratory advice on how to regard "senior moments" as opportunities to be in the here and now.

This book allowed me to have more understanding

I’m 33. I do not know if I was part of the intended audience of the book. I do know that i appreciated the book, the humour, the concerns, the honesty, the vulnerability, the care and compassion that was offered within the book. This book allowed me to have more understanding and care for the people in my life who are elderly. I’m very grateful to have read it. I recommend it to everyone.
