Old Women and Other Strangers

In this collection of essays, Linda C. Wisniewski considers the influence of helpful strangers, foreign cultures, and spiritual exploration in the light of family and heritage. A loving grandfather, a stranger who saved her life, and two homemaking aunts recall life in the mid-twentieth century. Post millenium, Italians giving directions in the rain, an Eiffel Tower evacuation and other events explore the connections to be found in strange places. Old age brings reflection on the unforgettable moments of a woman's life.
