| Summary: | Pamela Druckerman reveals the things it took her forty years to learn: There are no grown-ups. Everyone else is winging it too. Does it ever feel like everyone, except you, is a bonafide adult? Do you wonder how real grown-ups get to be so mysteriously capable and wise? When she turns forty, Pamela Druckerman wonders whether her mind will ever catch up with her face. With frank personal stories and witty maxims, Druckerman hilariously navigates the unexplored zone between young and not-so-young. There Are No Grown-Ups is a midlife coming-of-age story, a quest for wisdom, self-knowledge and the right pair of pants. It's a book for readers of all ages about finally becoming yourself. |
