The critical age, the winter of women, the green old age… So many expressions that say a lot about the way in which this pivotal moment in the lives of women is considered, when they are no longer able to procreate.But why is menopause so often mocked in our society, why does it make women invisible in the eyes of the world?Tracing the origin of the term, questioning specialists, sharing her experience and her thoughts, the author leads the investigation. She dissects the physiological, psychological, sexual and professional impacts of menopause, deconstructs the archetypes and suggests changing our perspective. Menopause then leaves the rational – and often terrifying – dial to become funny, vibrant, and particularly touching.
