It's prescient, insightful, and oh-so shrewd. With one caveat: You must be a woman of a certain age to fully appreciate it. Everyone else will probably roll their eyes or frown in absolute confusion or even disdain.Young women and men should read something else. If that's who you are, just go away now while we readers for whom this book was intended laugh and nod about our hot flashes, grown-up children, frenemies, dental work, little blue pills, interrupted sleep, and smart tales of what it was like then when we were the first women in a male-dominated workplace…well, you get it.Written by Emmy Award-winning documentary producer Sheila Nevins, this is a hilarious and wise collection of essays, short stories, and poetry depicting what it's like to be an older woman who still wants to be relevant in a world where she finds herself largely invisible.So if you're a woman of a certain age, read it and know you are part of a bold and powerful sisterhood. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Personal Struggles *by M***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 18, 2017* Summary: The author is a TV and documentary producer and has written a collection of short stories and poems. Some are about her personal experiences with moving up within the media world, while others are stories about getting older (menopause, aging and maintaining a beauty standard). Some stories are observations of people (conversations overheard), our society (her love of paper books), and even a child’s diagnosis with Tourette’s. Each story is short but interesting and entertaining.Review: Although I have seen the author’s work, I had never associated it with her. Honestly the title and cover caught my eye when the book was released and as I age myself, I was interested to see what she would say about it. The stories present personal struggles that many women experience (I especially was interested in the stories about women aging and gaining weight [and not being a size 8 anymore], wanting to wear what they felt comfortable in but feeling the need to fit in to their profession, and moving up in the business world). The stories about a family member with dementia and the son with a neurological disorder definitely hit home for me. And the story about Working Mom (WM) vs. the stay at home moms and the cookie sale had me laughing. There are a lot of different stories in here that will make you experience different emotions. Some are very short and remind you of things that may have happened to you, while others are longer and may not be something you’ve experienced yet. The collection was entertaining, but I honestly wasn’t drawn to the book. I sat down daily to read some but didn’t feel the compulsion to continue reading into the night. If you enjoy short stories about women’s experiences, then definitely check this out. You may find yourself in the pages. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Uneven but in the end more like than dislike *by M***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 11, 2019* More choppy and uneven than I expected. From the blurb I thought it would be vignettes. Some of the chapters just seemed to be rambling. I didn't see the point of many. There were still some great moments like when she was visiting the home of her WASP boyfriend and the mother asked her why she wasn't dating a nice Jewish boy. The point that sometimes your best mentors in life aren't those that like you was vividly driven home. I also thought her chapter about buying something for a bake sale was salient and rational--it served to illustrate the other completely ridiculous behaviors that some white and privileged mothers get up to. We often forget the point of being a mother which is not to please other people but to help our kids grow up. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/41817210-you-dont-look-your-age-and-other-fairy-tales-hardcover](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/41817210-you-dont-look-your-age-and-other-fairy-tales-hardcover) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
