Product Description

Review

'It's the funniest book of the year if your hair grows where it shouldn't and you've started making weird 'Nnaaaah' sounds every time you lower yourself into a comfy chair. Don't even contemplate growing old without it.' --The Times Magazine

Product Description

Are you:
Aged between 40 and 55?
Worried that life hasn't panned out quite the way you imagined it?
A lot happier after a couple of glasses of wine? Okay, half a bottle.
`Growing out' of all your clothes?
Tired, just really tired?

If you've answered `yes' to more than half of these questions, then congratulations, you are officially experiencing `midlife'. Middle age. The beginning of the end.

But are you surviving it? Getting the meagre most out of it? Probably not.

Covering all the key issues, from blogging and Boden to wine and worry lines, Rye bread, infidelity and Ikea, The Midlife Manual is your very own guide to getting through the middle years more gracefully. The aim of The Midlife Manual is to make you feel less alone during this testing time. It will make you laugh. It may at times even be genuinely helpful.

About the Author

John O'Connell worked for years - far, far too long - at Time Out magazine, where he was Books Editor. Since being made redundant on the grounds that `no-one really reads books anymore' he has been writing, mainly about books, for a number of national newspapers. He is 37 and lives in London.

Jessica Cargill Thompson is a freelance editor and writer. In 2007, a mini mid-life crisis prompted her to leave her great job as deputy editor of Time Out London in order to freelance, try new things and be a better parent. Thanks to the recession this proved to be a bad idea. In October 2009 she started the blog, How to be Unemployed the White Collar Way.
