The last ten years of her memory are gone and she's not a thirty-year-old woman anymore, she's forty. Struggling to come to terms with everything she's lost, she tries to live in her new reality but everything is foreign and unfamiliar.

A sharp examination of what it looks like to be a woman in today's society, this book is for anyone who's woken up at forty and wondered what has happened to their life.
