About this listen

A collection of darkly humorous, intensely personal essays by cult fave and multi-hyphenate artist Jean Grae

In My Remaining Years, by creative juggernaut Jean Grae, debunks the myth that coming-of-age narratives should be reserved for the kids, providing a much-needed rallying cry for those of us still trying to figure it out in our forties. These laugh-out-loud essays cover everything from aging gracefully (with and without botox), what happens when you look for community and almost start a cult, befriending childhood demons (Hi Mumm-ra!), gender fluidity in middle age, the cost of being too fabulous, and the various gymnastics we do to avoid becoming our parents, taking us from her childhood in 1980s New York City to present-day Baltimore. Jean captures magic in a bottle, distilling the feeling of hanging out with your smartest, funniest, and most brutally honest best friend.

Critic Reviews

"I have often considered how much better society would be if a small version of Jean Grae could live on every bookshelf. All of my experiments in this field have ended in international sanctions and house fires. But as usual, Jean had a better idea and wrote this book. The portable Jean now exists, and you must buy it!” —John Hodgman, comedian and author of Medallion Status
