Do Not Go Gentle. Go To Paris: Travels of an Uncertain Woman of a Certain Age

Summary

Rattled by fears, that she is losing not just keys, but her job, looks --even a sweetheart --Gail rashly announces that she will go alone to Paris, a dream postponed for 40 years. So begins the journey through France of an optimistic, infinitely curious,62 year woman, who seeks to ransom her self-confidence and learn how to age. Deftly weaving scenic description with sketches of feisty Frenchwomen and flashbacks of older women she has admired, Gail draws wisdom from people and places that have gracefully endured the passing years.
