I love Sandra Tsing Loh and this book of observations is insightful and hysterical. Her embellishments are always rooted in reality. Her sequence about being audited by the IRS is gut busting. Enjoy this laugh fest! ( ) A snarky hilarious memoir about a year in the life of a 55 year old and guess what, being that old doesn’t make adulting any easier. Take for instance your teenagers, they are still a challenge. Most adult readers will find something to identify with in each of the essays. And in a busy life, essays, rather than a connected story are much easier to read and provide laughs. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Ah, fifty-five. Gateway to the golden years! Professional summiting. Emotional maturity. Easy surfing toward the glassy blue waters of retirement . . . Or maybe not? Middle age, for Sandra Tsing Loh, feels more like living a disorganized twenty-five-year-old's life in an eight-five-year-old's malfunctioning body. With raucous wit and carefree candor, Loh recounts the struggles of leaning in, staying lean, and keeping her family well-fed and financially afloat-all those burdens of running a household that still, all-too-often, fall to women. The Madwoman and the Roomba chronicles a roller coaster year for Loh, her partner, and her two teenage daughters in their ramshackle quasi-Craftsman. Her daughters are spending more time online than off; her partner has become a Hindu, bringing in a household of monks; and she and her girlfriends are wondering over Groupon "well" drinks how they got here. Whether prematurely freaking out about her daughters' college applications, worrying over her eccentric aging father, or overcoming the pitfalls of long-term partnership and the temptations of paired-with-cheese online goddess webinars, Loh somehow navigates the realities of what it means to be a middle-aged woman in the twenty-first century. By day's end, we just might need a box of chardonnay and a Roomba to clean up the mess. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
