Daniel Klein is getting on in years. He's come to that time in life when you are very, very clear about what's small stuff and what's not. He decides to spend some time on a Greek island thinking a little and writing a little about what should matter to us in our last years. And here is this little book, full of those thoughts and speculations. Very wise.
