Aging baby boomers take note In this spicy bouillabaisse of lively and reflective essays, Crossing Seventy: Moments of Outrageous Aging takes seventy out of the closet and replaces it with a compelling portrait of a single woman living an ordinary life in a non-ordinary way. Humorous scenes from daily life in the U.S. and cultural immersion in Africa and Italy are grounded in recurring themes of letting go, marrying intuition to action, living in the senses, and slowing the rhythm of our lives. This short, succulent book dispels common myths about life and about aging. Instead, it says, "Forget what's out there in the popular press. One size does not fit all. Do you really want it to?"
