Following her acclaimed Ladies’ Lunch novella (2023), Lore Segal continued to create stories about a fictional group of nonagenarian friends as they faced the last years, months and moments of their lives. For Lore Segal, the importance lay in ‘still talking’, and still writing to the very end. Fittingly, her last story was published in the New Yorker in the week that she died, aged ninety-six.
This posthumous novella of interconnected stories and vignettes is enriched by Segal’s inspiring wit and wisdom, her compassionate gaze, and her unquenchable curiosity about life. It’s a book that entreats us to keep talking, regardless of differences and the trials of ageing – a book that we’ll still be talking about many years hence.
