This is a Love Song: Thoughts from the B Side of a Gen X Life - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

"Let’s call it a love song to a firefly generation. An ode to feet on the door jambs, the phone cord winding from toe to thigh. A poem to handheld tape recorders, boom boxes, and the small thrill of hitting Record at the perfect moment.”

Firmly planted on the B side of life, Dina Honour gathered her messy emotions about aging, pushed them through a sieve of Aqua Net and neon, and ended up with a collection that will make you laugh, cry, and seriously consider who you’d want by your side during a zombie apocalypse. Rooted in the music, movies, and trends of her youth—what she calls “generational DNA; our Gen X Jordache genes”—Honour writes with wit and candor about everything from hot flashes to Dolly Parton, marriage, and an imagined sequel to Sixteen Candles.

Honour’s gift as a writer is her knack for revealing the bigger truths that hide in the small moments of life. This Is a Love Song is an ode to a generation that has always defied definition, even in mid-life.

From the author of It’s a Lot to Unpack and There’s Some Place Like Home: Lessons From a Decade Abroad.
