The Burden of Beauty
Aging With Humor And Grace
by Autumn Carpentier
The Burden of Beauty—Aging with Humor and Grace is a reflection on what it means to grow older after being defined—or even confined—by beauty. It explores how beauty, while often regarded as a gift, can also feel like a burden.
Author Autumn Carpentier conveys how we can all discover freedom and self-acceptance of aging through humor and grace, rather than clinging to past ideals or societal standards.
While focused on women’s experiences, this book will entertain readers of all genders, encouraging every one of us to appreciate our inner beauty and view aging as a natural, positive process rather than something to resist.
