Menopause hit Darcey Steinke hard. First came hot flushes. Then
insomnia. Then depression. As she struggled to understand what was
happening to her, she slammed up against a culture of silence and
sexism. Some promoted hormone replacement therapy, others
encouraged acceptance, but there was little that offered a path to
understanding menopause in an engaged way. Flash Count Diary is a
powerful exploration into aspects of menopause that have rarely
been written about, including the changing gender landscape that
reduced levels of hormones brings, the actualities of transforming
desires, and the realities of prejudice against older women. It is
a deeply feminist book, honest about the intimations of mortality
that menopause signals but also an argument for the ascendency,
beauty and power of the post-reproductive years in women's lives.
