Susan Kanoff Contributes to New Book Focused on Women in Midlife
"Midlife Private Parts: Revealing Essays That Will Change the Way You Think About Age" is a soulful and revealing collection of essays that explore the many facets of this transformative time in life. Each story sheds light on what it really feels like to move through the world as a midlife woman and beyond. These essays acknowledge the changes and challenges as well as capture the power, freedom and confidence that comes with age.
Co-written and -edited by Dina Alvarez and Dina Aronson, the book includes a chapter written by Susan, as well as other writers, authors, and creatives, each of whom shares a story about coming to terms with aging and confronting the unexpected moments that define midlife.
