Publisher's Synopsis
Twenty years after her incisive first book, Sex and the City," which redefined the landscape of pop culture and relationships by examining the mating rituals of Manhattan's elite, pioneering Candace Bushnell offers a new book about the ins and outs of sex and dating after you've turned fifty. This new novel introduces a new group of characters: Sassy, Kitty, Queenie, Tilda Tia and Marilyn, whom we will follow in their amusing yet revealing adventures with the male sex. We find out what happens when a mature woman becomes the object of desire of a man much younger than herself, or what the "Mona Lisa" consists of, a vaginal repair surgery treatment often recommended for middle-aged women. "Her jocular and candid commentary on the world of modern dating reveals what love, sex and friendship look like through the prism of the middle-aged woman" (Vogue) "Bittersweet, funny and incisive, this is a book about whether we can accept who we are when things don't turn out the way we wanted them to" (Viv Groskop, The Guardian) "Fans of "Sex and the City" will enjoy Candace Bushnell's typically candid, semi-fictional, anecdote-filled situations" (Rebecca Wallersteiner The Lady)"
