<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"New York Times bestselling author"--Dust jacket.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>And so you've reached that time in life when you're starting to "pick investments over adventure, / And clean over scenic, and comfortable over intense"; when, even though in your heart of hearts you're much younger, the rest of you is (<i>how did it happen?</i>) forty.</b> <p/>Judith Viorst, the wise and witty lady of <i>It's Hard to Be Hip Over 30 and Other Tragedies of Married Life, </i> is here to guide you through these forty-ish years with poems that reflect the highs, the lows, and the everything-in-betweens of midlife. Viorst playfully considers the prospects of sagging kneecaps, awkward college reunions, and fantasies of love in the afternoon; being baffled by one's Buddhist bisexual vegetarian Maoist offspring; cholesterol counts, adult-education courses and other atrocities of midlife--which somehow aren't as painful when you can laugh at them. <p/>Filled with warmth, humor, and insight, <i>How Did I Get to Be 40 & Other Atrocities</i> is Judith Viorst at her best.
