From the flyleaf:
"The best-selling author of Passages returns with a myth-shattering investigation of America's last taboo: menopause.
"All women face menopause, but, as gail Sheehy so compellingly reveals in interviews with women from a broad spectrum of economic, ethnic, and racial backgrounds, the passage is seldom easy. Distracting symptoms, confusing medical advice, unsympathetic reactions from loved ones, and the scornful attitudes of socieyt-at-large often make menopause a lonely and emotionally draining experience.
"[...] Sheehy sets out to erase the stigma of menopause and 'render normalcy to a normal physical process.'"
