Every woman will experience the panic years in some way between her mid-twenties and early-forties.This maddening period of transformation and personal crisis is recognisable by the myriad of decisions we make - about partners, holidays, jobs, homes, savings, friendships - all of which are impacted by the urgency of the single decision that comes with a biological deadline, the one decision that is impossible to take back; whether or not to have a baby.But how to stay sane in such a maddening time? How to know who you are and what you might want from life? How to know if you´re making the right decisions?Raw, hilarious and beguilingly honest, Nell Frizzell´s account of her panic years is both an arm around the shoulder and a campaign to start a conversation. This affects us all - women, men, mothers, children, partners, friends, colleagues - so it´s time we started talking about it with a little more candour.
