Synopsis:

The jungle of midlife dating has found an intrepid new explorer in Jane Ganahl. Beginning with the launch of her San Francisco Chronicle column, Single Minded, and ending with her fiftieth birthday, Naked on the Page covers one frenzied year in a smart, social, but definitely middle-aged woman’s life. It’s a year of changes, both social and professional, complicated by hormonal upheaval, her father’s declining health, and the realization that after a life filled with too many men to count, she may be single for the rest of it. Ganahl traces her path of self-discovery as she tries to reconcile her midlife body with her teenage heart, navigate her claustrophobic social circle, and let her daughter live her own life. On top of it all, Ganahl has to manage being thrust into the public eye when her very successful new column exposes her life to the world. Frank and funny, sassy and self-aware, Naked on the Page is a tale of one woman’s roller coaster ride through middle-aged dating that will appeal to anyone who has ever loved—or loathed—being single.
