Encore: A Journal of the Eightieth Year

by May Sarton

Encore: A Journal of the Eightieth Year Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Sarton writes perceptively of how age affects her: the way small things take longer and tire more, what it feels like to endure pain and to be afraid. Other days her energy returns, her spirits lift, and projects abound. Readers both new and old will cherish this latest dispatch from her ongoing journey.

Synopsis:

In this affirmative journal, May Sarton describes both hardships and joys in the daily round of her life in old age--physical struggles counterbalanced by the satisfactions of friendship, nature, critical recognition, and creative spark.
