The prospect of growing old is far from an appealing one. Add to that the often futile efforts that many of us employ in order to look and feel younger, and you’ve got a downright depressing situation on your hands. With so much emphasis on fleeting, superficial pleasures and perpetual perfection – one may be left to wonder whatever happened to the virtue of simply growing old gracefully...?

Enter Wrinkles, Waistlines, And Wet Pants. In her hilarious new offering, author Jeanne Kraus presents the reader with an irreverent send up of many of the myths and misconceptions that still exist regarding the aging process. In her trademark acerbic fashion, Kraus tackles the popular – yet thoroughly faux – expectations of life after middle age, mercilessly destroying the infamous “fifty is the new thirty” delusion in the process. She also presents a host of vivid anecdotes highlighting the difficult realities that await those of us fortunate enough to experience the “Golden Years,” making no apologies for the often embarrassing truths about life after 50.

Throughout it all, though, Wrinkles, Waistlines, And Wet Pants serves as an encouraging reminder that – the venal opinions of pop culture aside – there is absolutely nothing wrong with growing older, and “acting your age” is a practice that many more of us should embrace if we ever expect to find true peace and happiness within. A highly recommended, powerfully insightful read.
