New Book Challenges Ageism, Empowers Seniors

Linda K. Anderson explores the pitfalls and potentials that seniors face in today’s day and age in “So Late, So Soon: Telling It Like It Is” (published by Xlibris). This new book challenges the concept of aging and growing old through the real-life stories and commentaries of 30 women living changed lives.
“So Late, So Soon” is straight talk about the reality of being an “old” woman. Anderson, writes of aging women living an altered existence. She highlights the lives of 30 women who give their commentary on senescence, how they feel about being “old” or “aged” and their shifting perspectives on themselves and life in general.
“In this book we commiserate and celebrate with others of our physical age, and offer advice, some serious and some humorous, to younger women,” says Anderson. “I hope our stories give insight to younger women travelling the path. Need I be defined by my age? I am not young or middle-aged or old. I am Linda.”
Written with grace, wit and clarity, “So Late, So Soon” offers rare insight into what it means to be a woman entering a new, somewhat overwhelming phase in her life. It deconstructs the concepts of age and ageism while empowering women of all ages.
