I See You Made an Effort: Compliments, Indignities, and Survival Stories from the Edge of 50

â€œAnnabelle Gurwitch is the child prodigy of the literature on aging. The only downside of this book is that it is bound to deepen your laugh lines.â€â€”Barbara Ehrenreich,Â author of Nickel and Dimed
Â
Actor and humorist Annabelle Gurwitch returns with a wickedly funny book of essays about the indignities faced by femmes dâ€™un certain Ã¢ge. Whether she is falling in lust at the Genius Bar, coping with her best friendâ€™s assisted suicide, or navigating the extensiveâ€”and treacherously expensiveâ€”anti-aging offerings at the beauty counter, Gurwitch confronts middle age with candor, wit, and a healthy dose of self-deprecation. Scorchingly honest, surreally and riotously funny, I See You Made an Effort is the ultimate coming-of-middle-age story and according to Bill Maher, "it should be required reading for anyone between the ages of 40 and death. Scratch thatâ€”even after death, it's a must read."
