A wise and thoughtful guide to the beauty and joy of aging, to taking up a new and important role in community and family life and to the soul's final journey in this life. A bonus for those who love Shakespeare whose last plays she draws on to discuss these important themes. It's the kind of book you read over and over again, each time drawing more deeply from her rich reservoir.

Like her former partner Robert A. Johnson, Helen Luke is a master of rendering the psychological meanings in great literature understandable and relevant to all people wishing to gain a deeper level of understanding about the growtn of the human soul. Having plumbed the depths of her own psycho-spiritual aging process(Such Stuff As Dreams are Made On), Ms. Luke has created a work fusing literary scholarship and personal experience into a guide for all of us to follow towards the inevitable. When the time comes for me to plant my oar (read her interpretation of The Odyssey)and turn towards the life of prayer, song and storytelling I will be eternally grateful to have had this wonderful Wise Woman as my guide. Deserving of a wide readership.
