Brilliant and beautifully written. - CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR Warm, witty and wise. No woman - or man, come to that - should be without this book. - CRESSIDA CONNOLLYThere has never been a better time to be a menopausal woman. Technology is such that 60 really is the new 40 (or even 35). But, for Christa DSouza, some nagging questions remain... What is the point of us now that we are officially biologically irrelevant? Are hormones safe, even if youve had cancer? Is there a cut-off point for plaits? In this fabulously confessional romp through the menopause, DSouza tells us what it was like for her, and what it will be like for you. She meets a bunch of menopausal nuns in San Francisco, goes hunter-gathering with the Hadza tribe in Tanzania, interviews experts around the world to get the latest science... and discovers along the way some surprising silver linings to this key milestone of maturity. Menopause: The True Story is a treat of a book - liberating, empowering and unexpectedly moving in its truth-telling.*Menopause: The True Story is an updated edition of The Hot Topic, first published in 2016* Author Biography Christa DSouza has written for publications such as the Guardian, the Daily Mail, the Times, the Daily Telegraph, Vanity Fair, and the Evening Standard, and is currently contributing editor of British Vogue. In her articles, she often probes body issues such as ageing, weight-control, diet, cosmetic surgery, and her own battle with cancer. She lives in London, with her partner and two sons. Review Menopause is something none of us want to talk about, it s a club that no one yearns to belong to. So I am on my knees, weeping with gratitude to Christa DSouza for writing about menopause in a way that doesnt make me want to run screaming for the hills. Finally, a cool look at hot flushes... Men, if you want anything more than the most shallow relationship with a woman over 40, man up and read this book. * Kate Reardon, author and ex-editor of Tatler magazine *Christa DSouza is warm, witty and wise. No woman - or man, come to that - should be without this book. * Cressida Connolly, author of The After Party *At last a no-nonsense, myth debunking and even amusing look at the M word. The final step to equality has to be turning the menopause from its current secret, shameful status into a topic we can happily discuss, learn to best negotiate and celebrate. In these pages Christa DSouza puts us firmly on that path. * Mariella Frostrup, author of Cracking the Menopause *With this book, Christa has branded the over-40s as the cool kids. Who else could make a book on the menopause a rip-roaring, witty but intelligent read? I laughed and laughed and learnt. * Anya Hindmarch *Been there... survived that... but how I wish Id had this menopause tour guide to get me through. Brilliant and beautifully written. * Christine Amanpour, CNN chief international correspondent * Details ISBN1780725493 Pages 192 Year 2022 ISBN-10 1780725493 ISBN-13 9781780725499 Publication Date 2022-05-05 UK Release Date 2022-05-05 Format Paperback Imprint Short Books Ltd Place of Publication London Country of Publication United Kingdom AU Release Date 2022-05-05 NZ Release Date 2022-05-05 Author Christa DSouza DEWEY 362.198175 Audience General Publisher Octopus Publishing Group Subtitle A Life-changing Approach to the Change of Life We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
