How do you account for an underground best-seller on the subject of aging women? The answer is easy: honesty. This is a small press runaway success about older women as we really know them. An important moving and life-affirming book...the various works speak about dignity, about respect, and about caring. About saying goodbye to old friends and hello to new ones...about not growing old gracefully, if that's what suits you. 60 writers have contributed to this book and it has become a work of art which spreads the word that there are, indeed, moments of joy and passion to be found in the rich and varied world of midlife and beyond.

I got this book for my mom, she had requested it a while ago and she was so excited to receive it! This was a present for her after she had her first cataract removed. I brought it with to the surgery to surprise her and she was thrilled!
As soon as she could see she started reading. She absolutely loved it and wouldn't put it down until she was done. She finished it after her second surgery and I would recommend this book highly! It made my mom very very happy.

Excellent book that points up the problems of the aging in poem and story. The title poem is the inspiration for the Red Hat Society.
