When you're a woman of a certain age, you are only promised that everything will get worse. But what if everything you've been told is a lie?
After New York City emptied out in March 2020, Glynnis MacNicol, aged forty-six, unmarried with no children, spent sixteen months alone in her tiny Manhattan apartment. The isolation was punishing. Women are warned of invisibility as they age, but this was an extreme loneliness no one can prepare you for. When the opportunity to sublet a friend’s apartment in Paris arose, MacNicol jumped on it. What follows is a decadent, joyful, unexpected journey into one woman’s pursuit of radical enjoyment.

Glynnis MacNicol is the author of I'm Mostly Here to Enjoy Myself: One Woman's Pursuit of Pleasure in Paris. Her previous memoir, No One Tells You This (S&S, 2018), was named one of the Best Books of 2018 by Esquire, the Financial Times, and the CBC, and was a 2019 New York Times 'Paperback Row' pick.

In 2021, she co-produced and story-edited iHeart Media's Under the Influence podcast, hosted by Jo Piazza. It's been named to multiple 'best of' lists. ? ?She's written for The New York Times, The Guardian, The Cut, New York Daily News, Town & Country, The Daily Beast, GEN, and ELLE, among others.
