What is your book about?

Squint: Re-visioning the Second Half of Life opens our eyes to the abundant possibilities of later life. The book pairs memorable personal stories with larger themes — downsizing, caregiving, forgiveness, estrangement, and more — and shows that with the right perspective and re-visioning, the future is rich with possibility.
