Sono stati scritti libri su libri sulla giovinezza, ma non c’è granché sull’invecchiamento. E visto che ho imboccato ormai da un po’ quella strada, mi sono detta: "Perché non provarci?". E quindi ecco, ci provo.” Dopo aver trascorso anni tra libri e scrittori come celebre editor, si è scoperta lei stessa autrice e a novantun anni, quando ha deciso di raccontare, senza falsi pudori, senza veli o paure, ma soprattutto senza rimpianti per le scelte del passato non tanto cosa c’è stato prima, quanto quello che le sarebbe successo da quel momento in poi: la vecchiaia.

In 1988, a band of University of Wisconsin–Madison undergrads and dropouts began publishing a free weekly newspaper with no editorial stance other than “You Are Dumb.” Just wanting to make a few bucks, they wound up becoming the bedrock of modern satire over the course of twenty years, changing the way we consume both our comedy and our news. The Onion served as a hilarious and brutally perceptive satire of the absurdity and horrors of late twentieth-century American life and grew into a global phenomenon.
