So What If I Get Older?
About This Novel
An interesting TO DO LIST, full of "good ideas" that make people laugh, for mature readers who are always optimistic or young readers who are full of curiosity. This book will tell you straightforwardly that life after the age of fifty is full of expectations. In middle age, when that magical age of 50 is approaching and you don't immediately recognize yourself in the mirror, life's fundamental question begins to weigh on you-what do you do for fun? Long nights of wild drinking, excessive flirting and partying - all the things that have been energizing and distracting for decades are suddenly a source of headaches instead of joy. So, how do you spend the rest of your life? Throw everything away and start over under a fake name? Retraining as a criminal investigator or psychoanalyst? Moving to Hawaii? No, none of this is necessary. Andrea Gerk invites us to explore the many beautiful little things in life that can only be appreciated when we are mature enough: inviting all your exes over for dinner, discussing your illness endlessly, reciting a poem every day, letting young people explain the world to you, and even giving yourself an award for your life's work.
