Shobhaa at Sixty
From India’s most widely read writer You’ve got nothing left to prove ... remember, life begins at 60! For most of us who have crossed the sixtieth milestone in the journey of life, there’s a tendency to consider oneself as ‘over the hill’, a ‘has-been’, or an ‘old fogey’. But for the irrepressible and exuberant Shobhaa Dé, that’s certainly not the case – life only begins at sixty! Declaring sixty the new forty, she comes up with a potent elixir to rejuvenate life, and provides practical tips on how to cope with the physical and emotional downslides commonly experienced by the post-sixty generation. Whether it’s the flagging levels of confidence or diminishing stamina, Shobhaa provides the perfect antidote. She lays great emphasis on family values and ties, and underlines the importance of a spiritual quest – all of which make each passing decade more meaningful and enriching. Drawing up a ‘road map’, which enables the reader to chalk out a future course, Shobhaa shows us how life is so very beautiful and just how much we have to look forward to!
