I bought a new wrinkle cream. If you use it once a day, you look younger in a month. Twice a day, you look younger in two weeks. I ate it. As the years go by, and the decades begin to pile up, people will do just about anything to reverse the signs of aging: LASIK surgery, industrial-strength hair dye, seven consecutive forty-ninth birthday parties. Rita Rudner is no exception. When she turned fifty, she couldn’t even bear to say the word. In I Still Have It . . . I Just Can’t Remember Where I Put It, Rudner writes with humor and candor about all of the small indignities and everyday absurdities that have become standard fare. From the perils of catalog-ordering addiction to the challenges of keeping up with the latest in electronics, lingerie, and reality television to the joys and worries of being an older mother to the long search for the perfect retirement house, Rita covers it all. So put on your bifocals and power up your sense of humor! Just don’t blame Rita when your laugh lines get visibly deeper. Refreshingly honest and undeniably hilarious, I Still Have It . . . I Just Can’t Remember Where I Put It is a laugh-out-loud look at the wonders and the surprises of life on the dark side of fifty. |

Summary: Funny, and worth reading This book is not as consistently funny as "Naked Beneath My Clothes"; maybe fifty-something writers (and readers) are past the joke-a-minute stage of life. The tone is more like the tone of her two novels, with some great jokes, some amusing stories, and some reflective passages. But you'll certainly get some laughs, and learn more about the author in the process. If you've enjoyed her prior work, you'll enjoy this book. I'd say it's funnier than "Tickled Pink", but not as funny as "Turning the Tables". But it's not a novel, so it's much more about Rita. And that's not a bad thing. I think she has aged well, as has her humor. |
