> Women today seek to redefine their relationship with aging, and this dazzling array of not-to-be-messed-with older characters provides compelling role models. These fabulous women outwit monsters, test and mentor younger heroines, embody the cycles and seasons of the Earth, weave the world into being -- and almost always have the last laugh.
> Women today seek to redefine their relationship with aging, and this dazzling array of not-to-be-messed-with older characters provides compelling role models. These fabulous women outwit monsters, test and mentor younger heroines, embody the cycles and seasons of the Earth, weave the world into being -- and almost always have the last laugh.
Many years of research have yielded this fresh gathering of ungainly giantesses, sequin-strewn fairy godmothers, misunderstood witches, fierce grandmothers, hairy-chinned hags, and craggy crones. These wise women manifest their wisdom in different ways, offering us inspiration for how we too can walk boldly and live authentically through the second half of life.
