Twenty years after her sharp, seminal first book Sex and the City
reshaped the landscape of pop culture and dating with its fly on
the wall look at the mating rituals of the Manhattan elite, the
trailblazing Candace Bushnell delivers a new book on the wilds and
lows of sex and dating after fifty. Set between the Upper East Side
of Manhattan and a country enclave known as The Village, Is There
Still Sex in the City? follows a cohort of female friends--Sassy,
Kitty, Queenie, Tilda Tia, Marilyn, and Candace--as they navigate
the ever-modernizing phenomena of midlife dating and relationships.
There's "Cubbing," in which a sensible older woman suddenly becomes
the love interest of a much younger man, the "Mona Lisa"
Treatment--a vaginal restorative surgery often recommended to
middle aged women, and what it's really like to go on Tinder dates
as a fifty-something divorcee. From the high highs (My New
Boyfriend or MNBs) to the low lows (Middle Age Madness, or MAM
cycles), Bushnell illustrates with humor and acuity today's
relationship landscape and the types that roam it. Drawing from her
own experience, in Is There Still Sex in the City? Bushnell spins a
smart, lively satirical story of love and life from all
angles--marriage and children, divorce and bereavement, as well as
the very real pressures on women to maintain their youth and have
it all. This is an indispensable companion to one of the most
revolutionary dating books of the twentieth century from one of our
most important social commentators.
