When push comes to shove, Death forces them to fight
their way back to life. But what happens when
It decides to tag along for the ride?
A big man, a small man, a sort-of man, a sort-of dog,
a not-so great woman, an oh-so great woman, all attempting
to escape the terminal institution at the end of life’s road.
Dispel all of your preconceptions and dare to venture into this
allegorical tale, about five older people who know nothing,
written by a younger person pretending to know everything.
"Milo Twyla is a modern-day philosopher.
Removing stereotypical divisions between polar ages,
this young sage writes of the winter of life
with such refreshing empathy and intimacy
that one is reminded of the humanity of our older generation.
After all, a person is a person no matter how old."

The Essence of Senescence is OUT NOW!
