Man, I felt so old when I turned forty. Now that I’m 57, forty seems like the prime of youth! This portrait of me is by Ceil Walcott, an accomplished painter who had worked on a daily comic strip titled “Yak A Day”, in England before the Second World War. She was in her 80’s when she nailed me with these few simple lines.

From Todd Klein’s review of HEARTBURST AND OTHER PLEASURES.
