Description: This elegant and thoughtful memoir, written during the author's 70th year, records her reactions and thoughts on growing older and also journeys into particularly vivid memories. It also records her daily existence, with all its joys, fears, and quotidian chores. One of the more remarkable things about the book is that it chronicles a major change in the author's life, that of the move from Washington, D.C., with all its urban intensity, to the quiet coast of Maine. The author's anxieties and hopes about this decision are recorded in clear, straightforward prose. Although the tone of this book sometimes verges on the cranky, or even bitter, it is saved from that indulgence by the honesty of the writing and the keen self-conscious tone of a writer who is her own most severe critic.
