One day, the protagonist of this story says "enough." After years of fulfilling the role expected of her – exemplary wife, devoted mother – she decides that the second half of her life will be radically different. She leaves home, her children turn their backs on her, she resumes her vocation as a sculptor and, against all odds, is invited to exhibit at the Venice Biennale. There, in the most stereotypically romantic city in the world, she rediscovers desire, freedom, and the pleasure of existing without asking for permission. A woman your age invites us to face the fire that ignites when everyone expects it to go out. A story of desire and joy, translated from Catalan, that celebrates the fullness and power of women who make menopause their greatest rebellion.
