Reviews
Reading Marilyn Reynolds's Over 80 is like having a conversation with a close friend. Neither depressing or sugar-coated, Reynolds' anecdotes and insights are a bit like answers to the questions many of us in retrospect wish we had asked our mothers and grandmothers. Her narrative voice is friendly, interesting, and honest. I highly recommend her book and warn you that you may be motivated to begin writing your own reflections.
--Ruth Saxton, author of The Book of Old Ladies . |
Through humor, acceptance and wisdom, Reynolds shares stories and insights about “...the unknown territory of aging...” as she shares reflections on being in her ninth decade of life. This book is about finding meaning in daily life at any age, and most poignantly, Reynolds shares what has fed her soul from her many years of being an educator. Dealing with unknown challenges and loss, she takes us on a journey as she names the necessities of life, explores healthy aging to the richness of memories and what makes life worth living. It is full of life lessons.
--Cynthia Davis, gerontologist and hospice chaplain |
