"The experiences and insights revealed across this uninhibited and often lighthearted literary collection are certain to inspire the reader..." Let the Clock Run Wild: Wit and Wisdom from Boomers and Bobbysoxers is a treasury of stories and poems, told with style and substance that bear witness to the infinite capacity of the human spirit at any age. - The stories 'put a smile on the face of life, ' as in the humorous account of when we uncover the wonder of rediscovered sex after our adult kids have finally left home. - They illustrate what we do 'when life hands you a zinger;' when you overcome the obstacle of losing your job. - They encourage us, 'don't overlook the obvious' by demonstrating the still present sense of adventure as one intrepid heroine goes hang-gliding for the first time at age 70. - They focus on 'the gift of endless benefits: ' how, with the passion to help others, we can actually change ourselves. The editors want to illustrate through this amazing collection of talented writers, ranging in age from 60 to 88, that with the advances in health care and technology, we are no longer limited by our chronological age, so why not just Let YOUR Clock Run Wild?"
