Welcome to Litsy!

‘Coming-of-age can happen at the strangest times. Into his sixties and newly retired, Anders decides he‘s had enough of steady habits..‘

The basis for one of my favorite Netflix movies. A little sad, often humorous, this was a pretty good story.

Anders, 60-ish milquetoast man, has just asked his wife for a divorce.
All hell breaks loose.
Insightful commentary on cultural pretenses, parental expectations, and living the dream.
Loved it.

Thanks @Texreader for the stroll down memory lane. This was my first post 2 1/2 years ago. Had no idea how to post photos. I was so surprised to see who liked my first post. Thanks to @MrBook & @jdtchicago for being encouraging. By the way, I read this well before the movie was made. I liked the book so much I wrote a note to the author and he was very gracious and thankful that I‘d written. Just a reminder to shower an author you like with love.

#JubilantJuly Day 28 - Reading Habits

This is pretty much my reading habit-relaxing, on couch, with kitteh.

This was a terrific story. I have no idea how a young man could write so accurately from an older man's perspective.
