"As this book shows, Hall...has not lost his touch. Laconic, witty, and lyrical, Hall is a master stylist, yet he remains refreshingly humble and matter-of-fact ...By exploring the joys and vicissitudes of a long life, this work offers revealing insights into the human condition&mdash;and the grit and openness it requires." --Publishers Weekly, starred review&nbsp; &#160;"The writing life at age 85...[A] sense of joy infuses these gentle essays. "Old age sits in a chair," writes Hall, "writing a little and diminishing." For the author, writing has been, and continues to be, his passionate revenge against diminishing. " --Kirkus Reviews&nbsp;&nbsp;"Wry, tangy prose...Many readers may find themselves hoping they&rsquo;ll be this cogent and canny when they&rsquo;re &ldquo;after 80.&rdquo; --Booklist&nbsp;"Deliciously readable...Donald Hall, if abandoned by the muse of poetry, has wrought his prose to a keen autumnal edge."--Wall Street Journal&#160;"alternately lyrical and laugh-out-loud funny...seductive frankness and bracing precision."--New York Times Science Times&#160;"alluring, inspirational hominess....Essays After Eighty&#160;is a treasure...balancing frankness about losses with humor and gratitude."--Washington Post&#160;"In this collection of 14 essays, the literary lion chews over his life-in-letters with a deft wit...[Hall] is caustic, funny, wise without being didactic, and even sexy."--Chicago Tribune&#160;"instinct with humor and mischievousness...A fine book of remembering all sorts of things past, Essays After Eighty is to be treasured."--Boston Globe&#160;"refreshingly direct, efficient, down-to-earth (also earthy), and witty...These deeply human moments enlighten &mdash; even comfort the reader &mdash; when Donald Hall converts them into engaging and memorable language...Essays After Eighty is lively testimony to his having done the one thing he always wanted to do &mdash; write it! &mdash; and doing it better than most of us can even dream of doing."--Los Angeles Review of Books&nbsp;&nbsp;"Donald Hall is a master of language, observation and surprise...poignant and blunt...Hall is reliably colorful and eloquent across the board."--Portland Press Herald&nbsp; &#160;"The prose of Essays After Eighty is a poet&rsquo;s prose. Hall is working with sentence and paragraph, not line and stanza, but every word counts. Concrete images propel his sentences, and he is a master of momentum and suspense. The reader sees or tastes a moment and yearns to know what happens next."--Concord Monitor&nbsp;
