Rachel Farrowsworth did not plan to be single and unemployed at fifty-six. With limited education, she is rejected for hundreds of low-level jobs and is one step away from being homeless on the streets of South Western Sydney. Her daily routine is receiving a never-ending stream of rejection emails from recruitment consultants half her age, living on instant noodles, begging the electricity company for sympathy, and helping her Syrian neighbours navigate COVID-19 lockdowns. In a youth obsessed society that can make women of a certain age feel invisible, will she make it to the other side?
