I've read it casually on the beach, but the words dig in at the deepest levels. Several nights I've awakened with pieces of my life rearranged according to the stories in this book. It has been food for thought and much more than a beach book.

Like "Cabbage Heads and Kings," SEASONS of the HEART is a quintessential read for those of us of the "third age." It appears that this author spent many days and hours gathering such in depth thoughts of the sixty to ninety plus age groups. It was truly rewarding reading this worthwhile gem of a book! The diversity of thought of the many, many third age people has given this septuagenarian much to chew over in contemplating his next book.

Men and women reveal thoughts about love and sex after 60 in this examination of aging and how it affects romance and love. From economic and social barriers to happiness to stereotypes about aging, Seasons of the Heart gathers the stories of average men and women who are elders.
