Description
NOW WITH AN INTRODUCTION FROM DOLLY ALDERTON, author of Everything I Know About Love, revealing how a new generation of women can take inspiration from Nora’s sharp wit and wisdom about life. * Never marry a man you wouldn’t want to be divorced from. * If the shoe doesn’t fit in the shoe store, it’s never going to fit. * When your children are teenagers, it’s important to have a dog so that someone in the house is happy to see you. * If only one third of your clothes are mistakes, you’re ahead of the game. * Anything you think is wrong with your body at the age of thirty-five you will be nostalgic for by the age of forty-five. ______________________________________________________________________________ `Nora’s exacting, precise, didactic, tried-and-tested, sophisticated-woman-wearing-all-black wisdom is a comfort and a relief. It’s why I give this as a present more than other book. I buy it for people so often that I’ve been known to give girlfriends two copies, one birthday after another’ – Dolly Alderton __________________________________________________________________ `I am only one of millions of women who will miss Nora’s voice’ Lena Dunham `Oh how I loved Nora Ephron’ Nigella Lawson `Funny, knowing and smart’ India Knight `The book that most influenced me’ Lily Allen
