"Inspired...the language spoken here is pure
Terkel."—The New York Times Book Review
A
New York Times bestseller when it was first published in
1995, Coming of Age presents an astonishing portrait
of American life and the experience of aging in the
twentieth century, drawn from the stories of seventy-four
very different people, the youngest of whom is seventy and
the oldest ninety-nine. Inspiring in the honesty of their
voices and their lack of nostalgia or illusions, these are
people with the widest range of experiences from all around
the country; many were at the vanguard of their movements,
whether of trade unions, gay liberation, or the arts. They
remind us what we once were, what we have lost, and the
extraordinary extent to which we've been transformed as a
society over the last hundred odd years.
