But many writers provide signposts as they consider issues we all encounter as we age, such as reconsidering our identities, living with loss, expressing gratitude, coping with solitude, and finding new ways to engage with life. Be part of a reading circle that meets weekly for six weeks to explore older adulthood, as portrayed in a wide range of writings, including poetry, short stories and articles. Discussions will be facilitated by Trudy Medcalf, a gerontologist and writer, and Wendy Robbins, a library consultant and former CBC producer. Readings will be provided.
