Chatting Books Online Year 2, Day 44. Today's recommended book is 100 Years: Wisdom From Famous Writers On Every Year of Your Life . It is a book of selections by Joshua Prager.
The book is very simple. each page contains an age 0-100 and a quote from a famous writer from one of their books where they explicitly list that age and then tell us something about life at that age. From Samuel Beckett telling us about 0 (Birth) to J D Sallinger talking about age 100 and every year in between someone had something to say about being that age. It is interesting to see how feelings on age have changed throughout the years since these were written - and how they have remained the same.
It is a simple, and interesting book that would make a great birthday gift for that friend who loves literature and you just don't know what to get for them. You know , that person you feel like you would like to get a book for but you cannot imagine what book they do not already own? Problem solved.
