Beskrivning
A brutally and hilariously unfiltered look at being middle-aged-plus in an absurd modern world by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Excuse Me While I Disappear.Laurie Notaro can time travel. The portal is Scottsdale, Arizona. Once inside her elderly parents’ home, she’s a child again—who’s two years away from collecting Social Security. Caught between generations, Laurie is young enough to be thrust into the role of caregiver yet old enough to be grappling with her own creaking bones and analog life skills. It’s an awkward age.Navigating it is just a matter of winging it. She runs rampant through Italy with her American driving skills. Infuriating office politics leave her little choice but revenge and some hexes. Laurie also confronts a high school bully at a reunion, considers an elaborate funeral at a puppet theater, and fancies an ideal retirement plan involving bank robbery. As for sex at sixty, honestly, it’s a challenge. The parts are a little rusty (at least they sound that way).Regardless of indignity or mishap, the #1 New York Times bestselling author finds agency with the sharp wit of a woman who refuses to go gently into that good night.© 2026 by Laurie Ann Notaro, all rights reserved.

Recensioner i media

“In addition to attracting new readers, Notaro’s latest will appeal to her many fans who have followed her growth through the years of her essays.” —Booklist“Any time my name is mentioned in this book is a lie. If you believe any of Laurie’s stories, you’re as much of an idiot as she is. Did you know she hit her head a lot as a baby? Only two of those times were my fault. In fact, I’m not even 100 percent sure I’m her mother.” —Mom, Laurie’s mom“This is a girl who once glued her own shoes to the carpet. Do you understand what I’m saying?” —Amy, Laurie’s friend“I told Laurie Notaro I retired, but I actually wanted to avoid being called to testify at her inevitable trial. Her co-pay is not worth it.” —Veronica, Laurie’s former shrink“I heard she put a curse on me.” —Three of Laurie’s former supervisors
