About this book
We're all ageing, all of the time. As a society we're getting even older, but we seldom seem to stop and think about the huge mental and physical changes that happen to us as we get old, or what it's like to live as an old person. The Emma Press Anthology of Age is a collection of poems which challenge, celebrate and give age a voice, finding humour amidst the heartbreak and comfort within the pain.
