    Cover of 'Look Me In The Eye' by Barbara Macdonald, Cynthia Rich

    "Look Me in the Eye" is a powerful exploration of ageism and sexism from the perspective of an older woman. The book delves into the societal attitudes and discrimination that older women face, particularly as they become less visible and valued in a culture that prioritizes youth and beauty. Through personal narrative and critical analysis, the book challenges readers to confront their own biases and to consider the complex intersection of aging and gender. It serves as both a call to action and a deeply personal account of the author's experiences, offering insights into the resilience and struggles of older women.
