Murder? Love and marriage? Conflict to the bitter end? Spiritual redemption? Comedy? Suicide? Tragedy? Joy?
GOLDEN YEARS has it all and then some.
But the unique, the surprising, thing is its about seniors.
Seniors? Theyve been off the map for years, havent they? Why bother?
But thats the uniqueness, the surprise. The best-kept secret in the literary world is that seniors have terrific stories to tell!
Consider: Two still vigorous oldsters in a nursing home get married. But problems arise, including the stroke of one of them before the wedding…
Or: a once prominent socialite, finally recovering from her second stroke, takes instant offence at her octogenarian room mate. She develops a highly principled plan to resolve this dilemma…
Or: a middle-aged lawyer brings his much-feared and now aged father home from a home to care for him. But dad has totally changed…
Just tiny tastes, I know: Why not buy the book for the full, satisfying, meal!
You wont be disappointed. The characters will intrigue and delight; the dialogue is engaging and rings true; there are absorbing plots with unforeseen twists, and conclusions that will surprise, even shock. Above all, youll have a good read.

Retired after thirty-three years as a high school English teacher, Michael Clark continues to be active in parish and Third World charity programs, as a pastoral visitor to nursing homes and field ornithologist, and as an author. He is also an avid reader, and a poet. In his earlier years he was a noted athlete, and held a variety of summer jobs involving "challenging, physical, labour." A major in philosophy at St. Michael’s College and holding the equivalent of a second degree in English studies from Mc Master, he has been happily married for over thirty years, and is the father of two fine adult sons.
