Another year, another January, and Marie Sharp has written a new diary, dishing the dirt on how the cool grannies live today. And her drug cravings aren't the half of it.
There's the handsome stranger who arrives as her new lodger. Is he all that he seems There's the new project - teaching art at a school, now that her grandchild-minding days are numbered. Not to mention the mad dog and the crazy new neighbour. And then there's the lump, a frightening symptom of... what Marie is back, courting laughter and disaster in equal measure. In her own inimitable style, she's getting older... and loving every minute of it.Funny, often agonisingly sad - and familiar - The Lady (on No! I Don't Need Reading Glasses)
Witty and affectionate, wise but never pious, this is a delightfully irreverent look at growing older - The Spectator (on No! I Don't Need Reading Glasses!)Wise, funny and heart-warming - Daily Mail (on No! I Don't Want to Join a Book Club)Virginia Ironside is a journalist, agony aunt and author, and the creator of the one-woman show Growing Old Disgracefully. She lives in West London and has one son and two grandsons.
