Love After 70

Love After 70. Heather Tosteson, Nancy Pelletier, and Megan Krivchenia, Editors. Wising Up Press.What is love, in all its forms, like after 70? Over fifty accomplished writers share their experiences with us in this contemporary anthology of poetry, memoir and fiction. There is a generous sensuality in the work we find here, strong passions, and a sense of surprise at their persistence. If we didn't know most of our writers were over 70, we would not think so as we listen to their most personal of voices-which is part of the fun and the invitation of this anthology. Until we get there, we don't know what this age is really like. And until we ask, those who have been there may not volunteer their road maps. But we are the richer, wiser, and more lively for having them. . . For what we realize when we finish this collection is that life after 70 is, excuse us, hot. And tender, wise, biting, grieving, kind.
