I Remember Nothing and other reflections

'Memories, aphorisms and stern good advice from America's favourite naughty aunt' Independent on Sunday'This book is as grown-up as a dirty martini' Sunday Times'Sharp as a knife' Daily Express___In her final book, Nora Ephron reflects on life, growing older, and everything she will and won't miss. Filled with Nora's trademark wit, wisdom and warmth.* No one actually likes to admit they're old. The most they will cop to is that they're older. Or oldish.* Freedom of the press belongs to the man who owns one.* I have been forgetting things for years-at least since I was in my thirties. I know this because I wrote something about it at the time. I have proof. Of course, I can't remember exactly where I wrote about it, or when, but I could probably hunt it up if I had to.___Praise for Nora Ephron'So bold and so vulnerable at the same time. I don't know how she did it' Phoebe Waller-Bridge'Oh how I loved Nora Ephron' Nigella Lawson'Funny, knowing and smart' India Knight'Nora's exacting, precise, didactic, tried-and-tested, sophisticated-woman-wearing-all-black wisdom is a comfort and a relief' Dolly Alderton

If there is any solace in growing older, it is that you will find yourself guffawing in hysterical recognition at the situations Nora Ephron describes, from the impossibility of trying to remember people's names at parties,to struggling with the new technology. You will find yourself rolling off the sofa snorting with laughter as she recalls with her signature clarity and wisdom everything she hasn't (yet) forgotten, including what it feels like to produce a flop - and you will swallow down a lump in your throat at the poignancy of her insights into the pain of losing friends, and the guilt of separation and divorce.
