What does it mean to live well in late life? Marilyn Reynolds showcases twenty-eight essays on how to survive a sudden health crisis, create your own form of spirituality, share a dog, and think about the past without becoming mired in it. Reynolds' voice is unsentimental, wry and realistic with a take-no-prisoners love of life and other people. Over 80: Reflections on Aging will appeal to anyone looking to live a meaningful life, whether aged 20 or 90. From the joys that friendships, family, and active living bring, to the challenges of an old body, Reynolds' take on life is poignant and laugh-out-loud funny. Both practical and inspirational, her essays are for anyone traveling the bumpy path to a long life.
