Women at 40, 50, 60 and beyond have been vindicated in Ephron's book about life and aging. We all stand by and watch as the crow's feet multiply, the laugh lines deepen, the waist and hips widen. We fight the process with miracle creams, Botox injections, surgical intervention, diet, exercise, meditation - whatever the craze of the day happens to be, but there's no cure-all for growing older.I Feel Bad About My Neck is a collection of essays that shed insight and humor on marriage, parenting, and aging in a way both sexes can relate to. In the end, it's all about putting it in perspective and realizing there's so much more to life than our physical appearance.
Unbeknownst to me, Ephron collaborated on such scripts as Bewitched, Hanging Up, You've Got Mail, Sleepless in Seattle, and When Harry Met Sally (among others). I'll definitely be picking up more of her collections in the future.
