Description

In the vein of The Bitch in the House, 15 powerful women offer captivating, intimate, and candid explorations about what it's really like turning 40 - and life beyond.

The big four-oh. Like 18 and 21, this is a major and meaningful milestone in our lives - especially for women. Turning 40 is a poignant doorway between youth and...what comes after; a crossroads to reflect on the roads taken and not and the paths yet before you. The decade that follows is one that is especially ripe for nostalgia, inspiration, wisdom, and personal growth.

In this dazzling collection, 15 writers explore this rich phase in essays that are profound and moving and above all, brimming with joie de vivre. This diverse array of voices - including Veronica Chambers, Meghan Daum, Kate Bolick, Taffy Brodesser-Akner, Sloane Crosley, KJ Dell'Antonia, Julie Klam, Jessica Lahey, Catherine Newman, Sujean Rim, Jena Schwartz, Sophfronia Scott, Allison Winn Scotch, Lee Woodruff, and Jill Kargman - offer exciting, deeply personal, and poignant perspectives across a range of universal themes - friendship, independence, sex, beauty, aging, wisdom, and the passage of time.

A treasure to turn to time and time again, On Being 40(ish) reflects the hopes, fears, challenges, and opportunities of a generation. It will leave you inspired, entertained, and comforted that the best is truly yet to come.
