Prue Leith
About this listen
In this candid, uplifting, and funny book, Prue Leith explores the trials and taboos of growing older - along with its unexpected joys. Part memoir and part reflection, Being Old and Learning to Love It is packed with Prue's trademark wit, wisdom, and no-nonsense charm as she takes a spirited canter through the triumphs, challenges and surprises of ageing well.
Sometimes serious, often funny, and always engaging, Prue speaks with refreshing honesty about life as a modern woman in her eighties. Nothing is off limits: from beauty, staying active and finding fame on The Great British Bake Off, to friendship, family, and the occasional regret. She tackles the big questions we all have about getting older - about time running out, dealing with grief, and her passionate belief in assisted dying - with the same frankness she brings to discussing finding love, the right time to retire, fashion, travel, and gardening.
Wise, witty, and wonderfully human, this book will inspire us all to face the challenges of ageing with good humour, pragmatism and confidence.©2026 Prue Leith (P)2026 Hachette UK Limited
