A View from Life's Edge

Discovering What Really Matters with Older Women Across the Globe

Beschreibung

In conversation with ninety-one women over the age of eighty in California, Iceland, India, and at a western New York convent, Dempsey discovers how what really matters can sharpen near life’s end. Here we discover a countercultural realism and an expanded sense of wonder that, too often pushed aside by ageism, call for our attention.
