The wry, relatable narrator of Gray Is the New Black - a memoir of ageism, sexism and self-acceptance - came of age in the San Francisco Bay Area in the psychedelic sixties. Now in her sixties, it's time to take stock. After decades struggling to be thin enough, pretty, sexy and successful enough to deserve love and happiness, she devotes a year to cracking the code, a journey that forces her to confront the gnarled roots of female shame. Gray is not a self-help book on how to go gray gracefully. Nor is it a manifesto about hair dye, or anything else. Going gray is a metaphor for the author's journey towards self-acceptance, a year devoted to dissecting stale expectations, festering wounds and fairy-tale dreams of fame, true love and passionate sex. The book is sad, funny, honest and relatable - think Nora Ephron with generous splashes of Erma Bombeck.
