520    In a society obsessed with living longer and looking 
       younger, what does middle age nowadays mean? How should a 
       fifty-something be in a world ceaselessly redefining 
       ageing, youth, and experience? The Middlepause offers hope,
       and heart. Cutting through society's clamorous demands to 
       work longer and stay young, it delivers a clear-eyed 
       account of midlife's challenges. Spurred by her own brutal
       propulsion into menopause, Marina Benjamin weighs the 
       losses, joys and opportunities of our middle years, taking
       inspiration from literature and philosophical example. She
       uncovers the secret misogynistic history of HRT, and tells
       us why a dose of Jung is better than a trip to the gym. 
       Attending to ageing parents, the shock of bereavement, 
       parenting a teenager, and her own health woes, she emerges
       into a new definition of herself as daughter, mother, 
       citizen and woman. Marina Benjamin suggests there's 
       comfort and guidance in memory, milestones and margins, 
       and offers an inspired and expanded vision of how to be 
       middle-aged happily and harmoniously, without sentiment or
       delusion, making The Middlepause a companion, and a friend
