No matter what age, we are getting older. Old age is a key stage of life, but this is the first anthology of creative writing on the topic compiling the work of contemporary women writers in Ireland. In these insightful essays, stories and poems, well-known and new writers reflect on their experience of ageing. Humorous, wise, critical and celebratory, this wide variety of views gives us important new perspectives on what it means to grow old in Ireland. The anthology has emerged from the IRC funded research project “Restorying Ageing: Older Women Writers Reflect on Ageing” (2021/2022) in partnership with Age & Opportunity.
