Reviews
"The title of [Sarton's] luminous new verse collection alludes to its underlying theme: old age. It's a time when she has 'more of everything to care for, to maintain.' Her powers of observation have deepened: a cat's footfall on the stairs 'speaks of an eternal Now.' In a beautifully simple language shorn of all artifice, she speaks directly and with wisdom about grief, loneliness, death, coming to terms with one's life." -- Publishers Weekly
