false <![CDATA[The Last Gift of Time: Life Beyond Sixty]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176044718m/586139.jpg 586139 3 Years ago Carolyn Heilbrun, a long-time feminist (<i>Writing a Woman's Life</i>) who also writes mysteries as Amanda Cross (<i>The James Joyce Murder</i>), decided to leave before age dragged her down by committing suicide at 70. Fortunately, she reneged, and chose instead to chronicle moments from her 60s. Always erudite, often deliciously wry, if sometimes pretentious, Heilbrun hits the mark more often than not in this book of essays. She speaks of "unmet friends" whose lives have paralleled her own and blessed deliverance from the academic bustle and backstabbing of Columbia University, the tyranny of memory, and foolish feminine clothes. Throughout, her sense of renewal is as welcome as her determination to go against the grain. 572981 10 3 1997 The Last Gift of Time: Life Beyond Sixty total:38|5:13|4:15|3:7|2:3|1:0| 38 152 66 15 586139 038531325X 9780385313254 27 10 The Last Gift of Time: Life Beyond Sixty 4.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176044718m/586139.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/586139.The_Last_Gift_of_Time_Life_Beyond_Sixty 4 1 false Fri Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 1999 Tue Mar 04 21:06:32 -0800 2008 Tue Mar 04 22:16:20 -0800 2008 more...]]> 586139 038531325X 9780385313254 27 10 The Last Gift of Time: Life Beyond Sixty 4.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176044718m/586139.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/586139.The_Last_Gift_of_Time_Life_Beyond_Sixty 4 0 false Fri Feb 27 22:19:03 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 27 22:03:40 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 27 22:19:03 -0800 2009 1 more...]]> 253985 0345422953 9780345422958 11 5 Last Gift of Time 4.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1223676570m/253985.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/253985.Last_Gift_of_Time 2 0 true Sat Apr 19 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Feb 21 10:55:21 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 21 11:01:53 -0800 2009
