"I tried to write a narrative that would talk about the collisions of full-throttle life and what happens to women who are over forty who don't remain in that happily-ever-after state.” Gina Frangello discusses her new memoir, Blow Your House Down, and how through it she wants to challenge "the invisibility of middle-aged and older women and this false assumption that our inner lives and our changes and our evolutions just sort of stop after we get married and we have children.” She honestly discusses her past extramarital affair, and contemplates the surreal experience of leading many lives.Purchase your copy on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3t41I5KBookshop: https://bit.ly/31XgAqM Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
