The Librivox Coffee Break Collections are themed anthologies, selected and read by Librivox readers. Each short piece is fifteen minutes long, or less — perfect for coffee breaks, commutes and work outs. Essays, prose, fiction, non-fiction, poetry — who knows what gems will be uncovered? In this collection, we explore old age — grandparents, retirement, wisdom, decline. It is an opportunity to reflect on mortality and depth of experience. – Summary by Lynne Thompson
