       verso. 
520    "From the bestselling authors of How to be Parisian, what 
       smart, savvy, fabulous French women think, feel and advise
       as they hit forty on life, love, and everything else Older,
       but Better, but Older has the playful wit, self 
       deprecation and worldly advice we have come to expect from
       these bestselling authors, but now that advice is focused 
       on the French woman's mindset as she hurtles towards 
       forty. Caroline de Maigret and Sophie Mas are back to 
       amuse you with how they find they are modifying their 
       favorite bad-girl behavior as they address beauty, love, 
       seduction as well as lifestyle, family, work, and living 
       alone. They are still bohemian iconoclasts saying what you
       don't expect to hear. They will tell you things aren't 
       what they used to be--when a thirty-year-old guy arrives 
       at a party and does not even glance at you; when you wake 
       up feeling great and everyone tells you how tired you 
       look; you know you're an adult when you're excited just to
       go home. Neuroses vs. confidence, resistance vs. 
       acceptance, passion vs. serenity, de Maigret and Mas 
       through spirited short stories capture the different 
       stages of ageing--as nostalgic but modern Parisian women. 
       From the privately absurd to the strangely universal, this
       book captures moments of everyday life that will make the 
       reader nod, cringe, and laugh out loud"--|cProvided by
