What's So Funny about the Golden Years (Paperback)

Poetry. "The themes Ben Milder addresses in his latest compilation of light verse, WHAT'S SO FUNNY ABOUT THE GOLDEN YEARS, allow him to dissect inconvenient truths about the aging experience. But he does so gently and with humor. The tendency to believe that, somehow, we are younger than our chronological age, the unwelcome intrusions of 'senior moments' into our thoughts and conversations, the need to adapt to the physical limitations imposed by our aging bodies, and many other topics are examined with wit and wisdom. All in all, this book enhances our understanding of the process of growing old as a natural outcome of a life well-lived and emphasizes that this process encompasses continued enjoyment, productivity, and deeply personal experiences"--John C. Morris.
