Questionable Commentary: Late-Onset Contemplations from an East Coast Septuagenarian

Description

This book is the result of a compilation of discursive newspaper articles from Canada's East Coast - a collection which considers a few thin slices of life in Nova Scotia over a couple of years, served up with bits of humor, nostalgia and some bologna. A grain of salt is recommended.

The commentary is from the perspective of a retired senior citizen with questionable insight, no previous writing experience and no claim to represent the views of peers except through the recognized community of retirees who get up twice a night to pee. Occasionally instructive, it is mostly unserious commentary intended to evoke a smile and convey affection for community and family and the decencies that allow them to flourish.

The articles reproduced here were published in the Halifax Chronicle Herald (mostly online) and/or in other Saltwire Network newspapers in Newfoundland, Labrador and Prince Edward Island.
