The wisdom that comes with advanced age is rarely accessible to the younger generation. At the age of ninety-two, art dealer Jeanne Frank has crafted a collection of sixteen creative essays, ruminations on love, life and loss. From the insightful I Want More to the poignant Louie's Rose...the poetic lyricism of When Sleep Takes Hold...the wistful Traveling at Eighty and Throttling Back... the zen pleasure of Peeling Potatoes and the provocative The Sweet Sleep, the author's words are lushly concise and highly entertaining. Told in an unpretentious conversational tone, this collection will charm older readers with its wit and inspire younger ones with its wisdom.
