At Seventy: A Journal

At Seventy: A Journal

May Sartonâ€™s honest and engrossing journal of her seventieth year, spent living and working on the Maine coast

May Sartonâ€™s journals are a captivating look at a rich artistic life. In this, her ode to aging, she savors the daily pleasures of tending to her garden, caring for her dogs, and entertaining guests at her beloved Maine home by the sea. Her reminiscences are raw, and her observations are infused with the poetic candor for which Sartonâ€”over the course of her decades-long careerâ€”became known.
Â
An enlightening glimpse into a timeâ€”the early 1980sâ€”and an age, At Seventy is at once specific and universal, providing a unique window into septuagenarian life that readers of all generations will enjoy. At times mournful and at others hopeful, this is a beautiful memoir of the year in which Sarton, looking back on it all, could proclaim, â€œI am more myself than I have ever been.â€
