Novella / Short Story | Anthology

As Madeleine L' Engle once observed, " The great thing about getting older is that you don' t lose all the other ages you' ve been." In 20 Over 60, editors Beth Weinhouse and David Galef showcase twenty brilliant short stories by authors over sixty- including luminaries such as Paul Theroux, Joyce Carol Oates, and Jane Gardam- offering a wide-ranging portrait of life in later years: vibrant, unexpected, and full of humor, wisdom, and surprise.

Readers will encounter a retired couple whose hobby is stealing peppermills from restaurants, a woman juggling both her husband and ex-husband in the same hospital, a futuristic nursing home whose designers become its unhappy residents, a woman of a certain age navigating the perils of online dating, and a grandfather helping his granddaughter scatter her mother' s ashes.

Smart, skillful, and often hilarious, these stories celebrate the full spectrum of experience, proving that life after sixty is as rich and alive as ever.
