Having watched those he loved leave the world before him, Old prepares for the final chapter of his own story. Working on his memoir, Old muses on the key moments of his life that had a profound impact on him, telling us of the after-effects of a mob lynching, a punch-up at summer camp, naval service during the Korean War, drug and alcohol-fueled binges in Spain, relationships won and lost, and struggles cancer. It’s a bitter sweet reflection on a long and storied life.
Additional Info
“Old’s life creates a complex and gorgeous mosaic of ups and downs that seem disparate at first but seamlessly fit together to form the portrait of a nuanced and grounded character. His life-changing events and huge historical moments become mere pieces in a wider picture that slowly comes into focus as we learn about an eccentric old man’s life. AS TIME GOES BY will leave a long-lasting impression on the reader as it teaches a valuable lesson about human nature and the meaning of not just one life in particular but life in general.” Readers’ Favorites 5 Star Review
