Resumen del Editor
From the New York Times best-selling author of Reviving Ophelia, a guide to wisdom, authenticity and bliss for women as they age.
Women growing older contend with ageism, misogyny and loss. Yet as Mary Pipher shows, most older women are deeply happy and filled with gratitude for the gifts of life. Their struggles help them grow into the authentic, empathetic and wise people they have always wanted to be.
In Women Rowing North, Pipher offers a timely examination of the cultural and developmental issues women face as they age. Drawing on her own experience as daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, caregiver, clinical psychologist and cultural anthropologist, she explores ways women can cultivate resilient responses to the challenges they face.
'If we can keep our wits about us, think clearly, and manage our emotions skillfully,' Pipher writes, 'we will experience a joyous time of our lives. If we have planned carefully and packed properly, if we have good maps and guides, the journey can be transcendent.'
Reseñas de la Crítica
"Narrator Suzanne Toren's mature pitch and thoughtful phrasing are perfect for this memoir-like review of the various ways women transition into their later years. Her sensitive interpretation of this nuanced writing will make many listeners feel like they are being invited into the author's life as they hear her intelligent observations and advice.... Toren's touching performance is especially effective in capturing Mary Pipher's melancholy optimism, especially when reading candid stories from the author's own experiences." (AudioFile Magazine)

Historia
At a time when we mourn public figures and national tragedies with hashtags, where intimate posts about loss go viral and we receive automated birthday reminders for dead friends, it's clear we are navigating new terrain without a road map. Let's face it: Most of us have always had a difficult time talking about death and sharing our grief. We're awkward and uncertain; we avoid, ignore, or even deny feelings of sadness; we offer platitudes; we send sympathy bouquets whittled out of fruit.

Every one of us sooner or later walks through hell. The hell of being hurt, the hell of hurting another. The hell of cancer, the hell of a reluctant, thunking shovel full of earth upon the casket of someone we deeply loved, the hell of betrayal, the hell of betraying, the hell of divorce, the hell of a kid in trouble...the hell of knowing that this year, like any year, may be our last. We all walk through hell. The point is not to come out empty-handed.... There is real and profound power in the suffering we endure if we transform that suffering into a more authentic, meaningful life.

The five elements originated in ancient Chinese medicine over 2,000 years ago - when scholars theorized that the universe is composed of five forces: water, wood, fire, earth, and metal. Understanding these elements helps us stay in balance physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally.

One of the main topics of cultural conversation during the last decade was the supposed "fertility crisis" and whether modern women could figure out a way to have it all - a successful, demanding career and the required 2.3 children - before their biological clocks stopped ticking. Now, however, conversation has turned to whether it's necessary to have it all (see Anne-Marie Slaughter) or, perhaps more controversial, whether children are really a requirement for a fulfilling life.

Historia
Our country is in a profound crisis: a crisis of decency, of civility, of character. And families today are experiencing a new set of realities. Our best instincts are undermined at every turn, and our families, to which we turn in crisis, are feeling the strain. Working parents are harried, tired, and overextended. Mary Pipher understands this. She's a good listener, perhaps the best listener in America. And what she has to say goes straight to the heart.Confronted with today's challenges, parents feel helpless to protect their children from the enemy within their homes: the innapropriate television their kids watch for hours, the computer and virtual reality games that keep them from playing outside, when they should be learning from and about the real world. Compounding this is the fact that our psychological theories don't work anymore. These theories were developed decades ago, when families were tightly knit, relatively monolithic institutions, and they're dated. Pipher argues that such theories are of little help in our violent, sexualized contemporary culture. And while diagnosing the problem is the first step in curing it, Pipher offers ideas for simple actions we can all take to help rebuild our families and strengthen our communities.

There are many blessings that come with age: retirement, grandchildren, travel, and life experience. Today's culture, however, marginalizes old age, often portraying it as burdensome and hopeless. Many older women can feel like an encumbrance rather than a blessing to their friends and family members. In response to these struggles, Sharon Betters and Susan Hunt encourage women to find hope through both real-life and biblical accounts of women who rediscovered gospel-rooted joy later in life.

These theories were developed decades ago, when families were tightly knit, relatively monolithic institutions, and they're dated. Pipher argues that such theories are of little help in our violent, sexualized contemporary culture. And while diagnosing the problem is the first step in curing it, Pipher offers ideas for simple actions we can all take to help rebuild our families and strengthen our communities.

Historia
There are many blessings that come with age: retirement, grandchildren, travel, and life experience. Today's culture, however, marginalizes old age, often portraying it as burdensome and hopeless. Many older women can feel like an encumbrance rather than a blessing to their friends and family members. In response to these struggles, Sharon Betters and Susan Hunt encourage women to find hope through both real-life and biblical accounts of women who rediscovered gospel-rooted joy later in life.

Uplifting and inspiring
Pipher captures the joys and pains of women’s lives in their last 20 years (or so). I’m age 63. She helped me accept and appreciate my current stage of life by describing the trends in my thinking and ideals that I thought were a unique part of me and my life. But by realizing they are characteristic of women rowing north, I found solace. Her writing is beautiful and voice is soothing. I enjoyed listening in bed at night. Listening to this book made me feel happy.

Not much new here
The narrator's voice made everything sound cliche and ho hum. I'm a fan of Mary Pipher but this was not her best work.

The three-legged cat
I felt the narrator for this book didn't excellent job. I found many of the stories examples. relatable and helpful. It's a wonderful book regarding women and aging and taking a deep hard look at our lives. Mrs. Pipher should have left out the ending with the three-legged cat. She either didn't explain that situation carefully or displayed woeful ignorance regarding helping that cat. She made several points of the fact that she liked and let a life of helping people and animals. I believe this. The three-legged cat is not an example of that behavior. however. everyone knows that a three-legged cat or a four-legged cat of any kind cannot exist and bird seed. If you knew of a three-legged cat in your neighborhood that was mangy and skinny, then do something for the creature. admiring it rolling in the sunshine after 8:00. it's bird. seed is foolish and hurtful. in spite of the many pluses regarding her story, this ending really disturbed me.

For all aging women:you’re not alone!
Navigating our elder years is hard, but Pipher puts us in touch with many who are on the journey with us, including herself. She only tells stories, no advice or platitudes. Stories that made me feel connected to the larger tribe of old women. She does not shy away from or gloss over the hard stuff. Neither does she forget the bliss, wonder and gratitude that can come with having survived many years.

Lack non-traditional family’s experiences
I enjoyed the book even though it’s more for women in the last stage of life. Comes across as traditional white educated female experiences rather than the multicultural diverse female experiences of current times. I couldn’t relate to many of the concepts addressed in the book. The author mother was a doctor. I grew up in poverty with an uneducated set of parents. Overall ok, but needs a more ample view of the female experience since it has evolved significantly in last decades.
