In this classic text on aging wisely, the renowned Jungian analyst Helen M. Luke reflects on the final journeys described in Homer's Odyssey, Shakespeare's King Lear and The Tempest, and T. S. Eliot's "Little Gidding," and also on suffering. In examining some of the great masterpieces of literature produced by writers at the end of their lives, she elucidates the difference between growing old and disintegrating and encourages us to grow emotionally and mentally in this culminating stage of our own lives.

All provide clues as to the questions we must answer as we age. The last chapter on suffering took a different bent. When we suffer for the sake of love, or offer it for love, there is some action at the heart of life. Etty Hillesum would agree. ( )
