The last hour -- The potato masher -- It's about time -- Dear Sally -- A home at last -- Oh, that I knew where I might find her -- A well-ordered life -- Trial run -- The gift.
Nine stories that will touch your heart. They are stories of people you will recognize--your friend, your sister, your mother, yourself. Inspiring, illuminating, and helpful.These stories express with great tenderness the blend of triumph and loss that is the very essence of aging. In a voice as gentle as a whisper of affection, Martha Whitmore Hickman writes about growing old as a simultaneous act of hanging on and letting go, and the stories echo with the ring of truth. John Egerton, author of Generations
