Description

8vo. 319pp. interviews with the elderly in both town and country by the author of 'Akenfield' How the old adjust to the perplexity of reaching the end of a journey following a lifetime of travel. Also shows up the isolating experience of living to a great age. A moving book. Edges of boards are faded where light has got at them. Not inscribed or price-clipped, a very good copy of a book which might help us travellers cope with living to ninety or more. vecchiaia senectus anziani terza et‡. sociologia
