I Feel Bad About My Neck

And Other Thoughts on Being a Woman
Book • 1998
In 'I Feel Bad About My Neck', Nora Ephron candidly and humorously discusses various aspects of aging, including her dissatisfaction with her neck, the futile attempts to slow down aging through hair dye, treadmills, and lotions, and her experiences as a White House intern during the JFK years.

The book is a compilation of 15 essays that cover topics such as menopause, empty nesting, and the obsession with maintaining a youthful appearance.

Ephron's writing is characterized by her disarming voice, dry sense of humor, and intimate storytelling, making the book a relatable and entertaining read for women of a certain age.
