Description
Sequel to her previous book, This Organic Life, this literary memoir will be embraced by women curious about aging, gardeners curious about contending with increasingly intense weather, and environmentalists curious about the future. Scattered throughout are urgent suggestions about what growing older on a changing planet will call on all of us to do: learn self-reliance and self-restraint, yield graciously if not always happily to necessity, andsince there is no other choicecome to terms with the insistencies of the natural world.
