David Elsasser celebrates a generation's moment of deliberation. Born during the post-World War II baby boom, a period of economic prosperity from 1946 to 1964, his generation, known for breaking with tradition and redefining values, is now reaching retirement age. One of approximately 76 million contributing to the Graying of America, the shift in population from forever young to Immitigably gray panther, Elsasser muses on the coming of old age in his debut poetry collection, a chapbook classic, first released in 2009, yet pertinent and still most entertaining today.
