Catherine's review of Early Bird: A Memoir of Premature Retirement
Early Bird: A Memoir of Premature Retirement by Rodney Rothman
After being laid off from his stressful TV writing job, Rothman decides to test out early retirement…literally. At the age of 28 he moves into a retirement community in Florida for six months. He nudges his way into the various senior clubs and organizations within the community and lives the life of a retiree. I found Rothman's self-deprecating humor very amusing and enjoyable to read. I came away with a clearer picture of what I could someday, a long time from now, look forward to should I decide to reside in one of these somewhat closed societies.
