About this listen

In My Remaining Years offers an immersive audio experience, fully sound designed to enhance your enjoyment. Listen out for the sounds of Jean's inner monologue, Dr. Umentary, and New York City with original music composed for this listening experience. Sit back and savor!

This collection of darkly humorous, intensely personal essays is written and read by by cult fave and multi-hyphenate artist Jean Grae.

In My Remaining Years, by creative juggernaut Jean Grae, debunks the myth that coming-of-age narratives should be reserved for the kids, providing a much-needed rallying cry for those of us still trying to figure it out in our forties. These laugh-out-loud essays cover everything from aging gracefully (with and without botox), what happens when you look for community and almost start a cult, befriending childhood demons (Hi Mumm-ra!), gender fluidity in middle age, the cost of being too fabulous, and the various gymnastics we do to avoid becoming our parents, taking us from her childhood in 1980s New York City to present-day Baltimore. In this audiobook, Jean captures magic in a bottle, distilling the feeling of hanging out with your smartest, funniest, and most brutally honest best friend.

What the critics say

"A fierce, funny book that embraces life and all its imperfections with open arms."—Kirkus

“I have often considered how much better society would be if a small version of Jean Grae could live on every bookshelf. All of my experiments in this field have ended in international sanctions and house fires. But as usual, Jean had a better idea and wrote this book. The portable Jean now exists, and you must buy it!”John Hodgman, New York Times bestselling author of Vacationland

“As a proud day-one fan, I have always considered Jean to be one of my favorite creatives in hip-hop, turning out lyrics that sharpen your sense of the perfect imperfections of life. I couldn’t be happier to see her pivot into authorship. Personal history, the mystery of the self, the crazed whirl of the crazy modern world—all of it gets the Jean Grae treatment in these sledgehammer essays, which hold your hand while they invade your head.”—Questlove
