description: A beautifully written, powerful memoir by Irish Times columnist Nuala O'Faolain. She courageously retells her life through middle-aged eyes, examining the meaning of her life, her accomplishments, and the missing aspects she has yet to fulfill. "A profoundly textured, truthful memoir, loving and acerbic, vividly told...with lyrical grace and intellectual stamina...An immensely courageous undertaking."--The Irish Times. "You don't want the book to end; it glows with compassion and you want more, more because you know this is a fine wine of a life, richer as it ages."--Frank McCourt, author of Angela's Ashes.
