What They're Saying
Critics Review
Real and raunchy!
“Real and raunchy!” Elle “A moving meditation on the libido of the pre-baby-boomer, post-menopause generation. In case that sounds forbiddingly high-minded, rest assured that it is also raunchy” Daily Telegraph “This is a memoir that sings with passion not just of the physical kind… A seamlessly wonderful read” Independent “Juska is honest, graphic, funny and moving. What she’s got to say is a challenge to our own preconceptions about elderly sex…her story is nothing short of inspirational” Daily Mirror “Well-written as well as funny and brave” Spectator
