Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. If I Live to Be 100 is a remarkable book, beautifully written and elegantly wise, that takes us inside the world of the very old and invites us to learn from them firsthand the art of living well for an exceptionally long period of time. Neenah Ellis always wanted to live to 100, and her fascination led her to interview centenarians from all over the country about what life was like at the very beginning of the century, and how things have changed over time. Ellis, a producer for National Public Radio, spent an unforgettable year traveling with her tape recorder and listening to the stories of America's oldest men and women. She met a couple who courted by horse and sleigh in Vermont during the winter of 1918, and she spent a week with the oldest living black lesbian in America. She visited a nationally known expert on dyslexia who published a book at 96 and whose great-great-grandfather was a colonel in Washington's army; and she met Anna Wilmot, the row-boating centenarian from New England who captured the hearts of thousands of NPR listeners with her confession that she swims in the buff only "when it's foggy and there's no fisherman around." Originally conceived as an American history project, Ellis's year of interviews became much more, a personal journey of growth and transformation. After two decades of acting as the reporter and inquisitor, Ellis finally shifted gears and was able in the process of these conversations to start really listening. Once she had put away the exigencies of her cusp-of-the-millennium life--her deadlines, the intense focus on current events, the endless e-mail and ringing phones --she began to learn the kinds of things that we do from much olderpeople. She started to connect in her conversations with them, and to see the virtue of looking forward, as the centenarians did, not backward. They reminded her that the moment--this very moment that we're in right now--is precious and fine. And that the true richness of life is to be found in each other--in our marriages and friendships, in the intellectual life that we share with each other, and in the ways that we become connected. Their stories add up to a course in living well, with lessons and inspiration for all of us. Solid binding.

"Wat a beautiful book.amazingly vital and sensitive." - Dallas Morning News. "Neenah Ellis's New York Times bestselling If I Live to be 100 takes us inside the world of the very old and invites us to learn from them the art of living well for an exceptionally long period of time. Their stories add up to a course in living, with lessons and inspiration for all of us." - from the rear outer cover. "With the old, process is everything. Love is paying attention and being here now. Ellis knows this. In her delicious book, she teaches us all to slow down, fall into the moment, and listen." - Mary Pipher, author. "When the radio versions of these stories came on the air I had to stop whatever I was doing, sit down, and listen. What a treat it is to be able to now read and reread these wise and wonderful tales, without having to interrupt toothbushing to do it." - Cokie Roberts. "Neenah Ellis's splendid book gathers together many American voices, all of them necessary, speaking from the far side of life. [The book] is an empathic journey, an education in deep listening, and a heartfelt investigation into the spirit of long life. One comes away from this book enlightened, refreshed, amazed." - Edward Hirsch, author.
