Crossing Seventy: Moments of Outrageous Aging - Paperback
by Dee Montalbano (Author)
Aging baby boomers take note In this spicy bouillabaisse of lively and reflective essays, Crossing Seventy: Moments of Outrageous Aging takes seventy out of the closet and replaces it with a compelling portrait of a single woman living an ordinary life in a non-ordinary way. Humorous scenes from daily life in the U.S. and cultural immersion in Africa and Italy are grounded in recurring themes of letting go, marrying intuition to action, living in the senses, and slowing the rhythm of our lives. This short, succulent book dispels common myths about life and about aging. Instead, it says, "Forget what's out there in the popular press. One size does not fit all. Do you really want it to?"
Dee Montalbano's essays and memoirs have been published in The New York Times, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Stories for a Better World, Chicken Soup for the Beach Lover's Soul, Changes magazine, and elsewhere. A National Writing Fellow, speaker, teacher, and entrepreneur, she currently conducts MoonWriting workshops for women in the second half of life. Mother, grandmother, and a New Yorker for her first half-century, she now divides her time between Boulder, Colorado, and Lucca, Italy.
