Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Spiritual View of Aging
Found this to be a positive, spiritual approach to aging. Better than most I've read.
Rating:  - a powerful book
I agree with the previous reviewer that this book is a celebration of aging, but I'd also call attention to how incisive it is about aging as suffering in our society: and how convincing I found it on replacing despair with quiet exultation. Henri Nouwen always moves me with the deep simplicity of his writing. And the beautiful photographs intervene effectively in the text.
Rating: - Celebrating Aging
A celebration of aging in words and photographs. We are all aging. This book is for all of us. It is an inspirational look at how we can start wherever we are in life to make our own aging meaningful.
