Days of Rage

Did you just forget why you went into the closet? Are you more than a little perplexed by the meaning of a Twitter? What's more, do you find yourself starting to seriously contemplate what happens when the final lights go out? Congratulations. You are officially old. Now that you've established that, author Cas Dunlap encourages you to cheer up, finish your business, and rage during your final years.

In twenty-five stories that span the human experience from frivolity to grief, "Days of Rage" is a comic and comforting collection that offers a philosophical look at the aging process, be it through exploring a poignant interaction at a nursing home or witnessing how one person copes with the unexpected passing of a soul mate.

Together, this stirring, gently humorous collection reminds us that, rich or poor, gifted or not, we are bound to get old. That is, if we are lucky. By casting reflective, wry light on the human condition, these stories drolly affirm the truth about aging, while they also serve as a rallying cry to embrace this time of life with guts, glory, and a grin.
