This is the thing, you see: I am on my way to being an old man. But at sixty, I am still the youngest of old men.As Ian Browns sixtieth birthday loomed, every moment seemed to present a choice: Confront, or deny, the biological fact that the end was now closer than the beginning. True, he was beginning to notice memory lapses, creaking knees, and a certain social invisibilityand yet, it troubled him that many people think of sixty as old, because he rarely felt older than at forty.An awardwinning writer, Brown instead chose to notice every moment, try to understand it, capture it . . . all without panicking. Sixty is the result: Browns uncensored account of his sixtyfirst year, and, informed by his reportorial gifts, his investigation of the many changesphysical, mental, and emotionalthat come to all of us as we age.Brown is a master of the seriocomic, and his daytoday dramasas a husband, father, brother, son, friend, and neighborare rendered, inseparably, with wistfulness and laughoutloud wit. He is also a discerning, prolific reader, and it is a pure pleasure being privy to his thoughts on the dozens of writersincluding Virginia Woolf, Philip Larkin, A. J. Liebling, Wislawa Szymborska, Clive James, Sharon Olds, and Karl Ove Knausgaardwho speak to him most, at sixty.From an author on whom the telling detail is never lost, Sixty is a richly informative, candid report from the line between middleaged and soontobeelderly. It perfectly captures the obsessions of a generation realizing that they are no longer young.
