The upheavals of modern times can render human relationships difficult under the best of circumstances, and sometimes it takes the ironies inherent in those upheavals to strengthen the most intimate of human ties. In his heartfelt memoir, Mustin lays bare the hopes and fears, the joys and tragedies, of romance and marriage in middle age.
The story of this couple's life together, set against wife Becca's struggle with cancer, is a searing portrait of late middle age in modern times.
