Forty-five-year-old Eliza Hamilton wakes at 3 a.m. every morning, feverishly hot, her heart racing and mind whirring with every worst-case scenario imaginable. She’s snappy, exhausted and has developed an alarming inability to remember simple nouns.
When a close friend has the audacity to suggest that Eliza is hurtling toward menopause, she is naturally appalled. Menopause is something that happens to other women, older women.
As Eliza tries to negotiate this new and confusing landscape, she also embarks on the biggest challenge of her career so far. But she soon discovers that juggling erratic mood swings with motherhood, demanding family members and domestic drudgery is far from the harmonious scenario she’d envisaged.
If Eliza wants to embrace midlife without the crisis, she must first make some grown up choices and face some uncomfortable truths.
Hilarious, gritty and brutally honest, Overgrown will have you laughing, crying and rooting for its quirky yet relatable characters. A much-needed novel every woman approaching midlife should read.
