Now in her nineties, Viorst writes about life's \"Final Fifth,\" those who are eighty to one hundred years old. Her signature blend of humor and vulnerability infuses personal anecdotes and observations, drawing you into her world of memories and candid conversations. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eShe confesses, \"I never ever send a text while driving, and not just because I don't know how to text.\" She discusses the afterlife (She doesn't believe in it, but if it exists, she hopes her sister-in-law isn't there). She complains to her dead husband (\"I need you fixing our damn circuit breakers. I need you! Could you please stop being dead?\"). And she explores the late-life meanings of wisdom and happiness and second chances and home. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith a wit that defies age, Viorst navigates the terrain of loss. It's a poignant dance between grief and levity that will resonate with those in their Final Fifth as well as anyone who has parents, relatives, or friends in their eighties and beyond. This is Judith Viorst at her best.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Judith Viorst\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.50h x 6.00w x 0.43d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781668068014","brand":"Viorst, Judith","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47447645126884,"sku":"9781668068014","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9587\/8628\/files\/9781668068014.jpg?v=1777103369"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookandmortar.com\/collections\/viorst-judith.oembed","provider":"BookandMortar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
