Product Description
Have you ever wondered how other women survived their 40's? You'll get an earful in Knowing Pains, an honest, humorous, thoughtful and diverse collection of essays by real women who aren't afraid to tell their age and tell it like it is. Sex, marriage, love, divorce, motherhood, singlehood, passion, obsession. Nothing is off-limits to this startlingly fresh group of new female voices that Molly Rosen has brought together to swap stories and compare notes on the desires, influences and events that have impacted and shaped their midlives. Collectively, they form a true picture of how real women not only survive their 40's, but thrive with dignity, courage and laughter.

Customer Reviews
Excellent book for anyone who loves great writing and reading
The stories in this wonderful collection by great writers are what every woman, no matter her age or ethnic background, needs. You will laugh, cry and cheer for these women and find yourself in pieces of each beautifully crafted tale. Bravo! This is a book filled with both heart and humor. You can't beat the combo.
A Gift of Knowledge, Humor and Inspiration
I must have dog-earred more than 20 pages in this fantastic compilation of smart, funny, inspiring and, in many cases, just plain raw stories of what I would have to call aha moments. In almost every story, women share their aha's and how their lives were forever changed. With holiday gift giving quickly approaching, and my budget being tight, I've decided that giving this book as my gift of choice to my gal pals, both young and old, is the gift that will definitely keep on giving into the new year.
knowing pains knows
It's a fabulous book. i laughed, cried and nodded in empathy as i read through the book in two short days... it left me wanting more. more. more. a must give to all your friends in their forties.
