About this listen

The Magic Table is a collection of poetry, satire, and short stories reflecting on what is talked about, laughed about, and felt in a society of elders. Having moved into a retirement community at age 84, the author discovers beauty, friendship, humor, memories, and newfound pursuits to celebrate in later life. Insightful, a must hear for boomers beginning to contemplate their third act. Recommended for anyone who is or loves someone in their sixties, seventies, eighties, and beyond. Indie Review notes: "The Magic Table includes insight, wisdom, humor, and deep feeling in...a sequence of short, lively, and very readable poems and prose pieces...he has the poets ability to take a small, and seemingly everyday thing, like two old men conversing while feeding a squirrel, or an attack of the common cold, and find in it deep meaning, or else bright amusement." This book is touching and funny.
