In her final book, Nora Ephron reflects on life, growing older, and everything she will and won't miss. Filled with Nora's trademark wit, wisdom and warmth.
_ No one actually likes to admit they're old. The most they will cop to is that they're older. Or oldish.
_ Freedom of the press belongs to the man who owns one.
_ I have been forgetting things for years-at least since I was in my thirties. I know this because I wrote something about it at the time. I have proof. Of course, I can't remember exactly where I wrote about it, or when, but I could probably hunt it up if I had to.
