Description
When Pamela Druckerman turned forty, she began to notice that she had lost her ironic attitude toward her clothes: now she chose restaurants without loud music, preferred “the company of her own people” to “cool company,” her parents stopped trying to influence her, and Parisian waiters started calling her “madame” — slightly irritating — instead of the sweet “mademoiselle” she held dear…

Pamela decided to explore this uncharted area “between young and not quite young,” and with her characteristic observational sharpness, wit, boldness, and sincerity she guides the reader through her experience of emotional and physical changes in midlife, showing how they affect relationships with others and with oneself. “There Are No Grown-Ups” is part frank memoir and part engaging study of everyday life.

A funny and wise book for any age — and all ages — about how to finally become yourself.
