Joan Gussow - Growing, Older: A Chronicle of Death, Life, and Vegetables

Joan Gussow discusses her memoir Growing, Older: A Chronicle of Death, Life, and Vegetables. Scattered throughout are urgent suggestions about what growing older on a changing planet will require all of us to do: learn self-reliance and self-restraint, yield graciously, if not always happily, to necessity, and come to terms with the insistencies of the natural world.
