How to Age Disgracefully: The funny and uplifting new novel from the bestselling author of The Authenticity Project - Hardcover
Synopsis
'Uplifting, heartwarming and joyful. Restored my faith in humankind' RUTH JONES
'A celebration of life at every stage' JENNIE GODFREY
''Joyful, life-affirming and full of heart ... an absolute riot of a read' FREYA SAMPSON
When age makes you invisible, secrets are easier to hide
Daphne knows that age is just a number. She also knows that society no longer pays her any attention – something she’s happy to exploit to help her hide a somewhat chequered past.
But finding herself alone on her 70th birthday, with only her plants to talk to and neighbours to stalk online, she decides she needs some friends. Joining a Senior Citizen's Social Club she’s horrified at the expectation she’ll spend her time enduring gentle crafting activities. Thankfully, the other members – including a failed actor addicted to shoplifting and a prolific yarn-bomber – agree.
After a tragic accident, the local council threaten to close the club – but they have underestimated the wrong group of pensioners...and with the help of a teenage dad and a geriatric, orphaned dog, the incongruous gang set out to prove it.
As long as their pasts don't catch up with them first…
