About 'Look After Your Feet'

Some keen observations on the unexpected advantages and indignities of getting older.

An irreverent look at the darkly funny experience of getting older from one of Australia's favourite authors.

This book is dedicated to feet, much maligned and underappreciated, but without which we would travel far less.

Peppered with practical advice about all manner of things – cheese and wine for dinner is welcome and acceptable – Look After Your Feet is a brilliantly funny, painfully honest and insightful celebration of the wisdom that seems to accelerate as body parts deteriorate, and life* falls into place.

* Often just a little bit too late.
