The Middlepause: On Life After Youth
by Benjamin, Marina
- New
- Paperback
The Middlepause offers a vision of contentment in middle age, without sentiment or delusion. Marina Benjamin weighs the losses and opportunities of our middle years, taking inspiration from literature, science, philosophy, and her own experience. Spurred by her surgical propulsion into a sudden menopause, she finds ways to move forward while maintaining clear-eyed acknowledgment of the challenges of aging. Attending to complicated elderly parents and a teenaged daughter, experiencing bereavement, her own health woes, and a fresh impetus to give, Benjamin emerges into a new definition of herself as daughter, mother, citizen, and woman. Among
The Middlepause's many wise observations about no longer being young:
"I am discovering that I care less about what other people think. My needs are leaner and my storehouse fuller. It is not possible to fully appreciate what it means to age without attending to what the body knows. . . ."
"I have always had a knee-jerk distaste for the idea that age is all in the mind. You need a cohort of peers to go through the aging process with you. A cackle of crones! A cavalry!"
Marina Benjamin's memoir will serve as a comfort, a companion to women going through the too-seldom-spoken of physical and mental changes in middle age and beyond.
