Reviews
Sarton demonstrates that old age can be a vibrant and liberating experience in which one possesses 'the freedom to be absurd, the freedom to forget things . . . the freedom to be eccentric.' [An] engrossing daily journal., For decades May Sarton's has been a major voice in autobiographical literature. . . . [Her journals] have broken fresh ground for the experience of women and the battle with age., [Sarton's] many admirers will cherish [Encore] as the still-strong voice of an intelligent, honest, perceptive, and compassionate human being.
Synopsis
In this affirmative journal, May Sarton describes both hardships andjoys in the daily round of her life in old age--physical strugglescounterbalanced by the satisfactions of friendship, nature, criticalrecognition, and creative spark., Sarton writes perceptively of how age affects her: the way small things take longer and tire more, what it feels like to endure pain and to be afraid. Other days her energy returns, her spirits lift, and projects abound. Readers both new and old will cherish this latest dispatch from her ongoing journey.
