Book Overview
You're not over the hill--it's just taking you longer to get to the top. Mick Jagger did it. Paul McCartney did it too, and Tina Turner made it in a short skirt and red lipstick. But when it happens to you, chances are you'll find it hard to believe. Reaching the big Five-O is more of a milestone than other birthdays, but what does it really mean? Gloria Steinem says that fifty is what forty used to be. So if your birthday candles set off the smoke alarm, don't despair--dig into this warm and funny collection of celebrity quotes, lists, interviews, and tongue-in-cheek advice. Here's all the wit and wisdom of many who have already reached the half-century mark, hilariously (or hysterically) gathered to remind you that you're not alone, and that the best is yet come.

James Joyce and the Dead/Portrait
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
To William Klingaman - you have ruined our lives. Since we took your class, we've been unhealthily interested in James Joyce - we just watched a movie called "Nora" about his wife. We didn't understand...ran to the computer, read a biography on James Joyce, and looked frantically for some criticism on the film to help explain it to us. We are now in pursuit of your email address so we can make you watch it and explain it to us. You said that we couldn't think for ourselves...We now feel a need to go and read the book, along with everything he's ever written in order to get a better understanding of the movie. We are also having a JJ movie fest and plan to start a HUM book club devoted to the Irishman. HELP!
