Mary Elizabeth tells it like it is in her book of poetry and prose. She has lived a full life and has a great deal of insight, wit, and wisdom to share. Not only does she write about growing older but she expounds on love relationships, parenthood, and the expectations of her generation from society and parents. Both the unique and compelling cover art and the drawings in the book are from mary’s collection of artwork. If you are 'of a certain age', and even if you are not quite there yet, you will find this book a delightful, entertaining, and enlightening read.
