Two Friends, Too Old

Autor Robert Scott
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 aug 2012
After 65-year-old retired-attorney Frank finds Clay savagely beating his own dog, he struggles to save his lifelong friend from sinking further into insanity and its tragic consequences.Frank's wife, Lucille, adapts to aging with a quiet grace that Frank cannot quite learn to embrace. Dirt-poor farmers Will and Annie find a simple dignity in coping with her terminal illness, but Clay refuses to accept their choices. From pharmacist Matt, Frank acquires information critical for helping Clay, but Frank has to decide whether to use that knowledge.Two Friends, Too Old is grounded in friendship, even as it explores the darker edges of growing old and becoming dangerously selfish. It is about how fate shapes our lives, and the consequences of lies, even told for the best of reasons. Frank desperately wants to prevent what seems inevitable, but as his sweet young granddaughter, Shelley, gets caught in the middle, the choices narrow and Frank runs out of time.
