Read the latest review on Never Too Late
From Amazon.com:
Great
read!, August 25, 2007 By Beth G. (Chicago, IL)
73 is a great read! Howard Englander has captured the essence of getting older
but refusing to be "old" His short stories will ring true in some way with every
American over age 55. Told in a clear voice with vivid character descriptions,
Englander isn't afraid to broach subjects like sex over 70 (*gasp*), melancholia,
and the search for meaning and fulfillment post-career. I will be buying this
book in droves at Christmastime for the older people in my life who seem to
have everything and are hard to buy for ... I'll be giving them the gift of
comraderie, empathy and a good belly laugh!

If you enjoy reading about interesting characters in a short story format then
73 is a great choice. I liked all of the stories and each story held my interest.
A great gift for any "cool senior" or babyboomer.
I love this book!, August 7, 2007 By Lisa Baker "Lisa" (Chicago, IL)
73 is a book that everyone of every age should read. People in their 70's and
older should read it to know that they aren't alone with their feelings and
experiences. It's an informational read for people in their 50's and 60's -
they'll learn what to expect as they get older. The younger generations should
read it to realize that their parents and grandparents aren't completely nuts!
I'm only 34 years old, but Howard Englander's attention to detail drew me in
to each story, making me feel like I am the main character. The short stories
in 73 are hysterical, heartbreaking and every emotion in between. The book makes
you realize just how precious life is, and to live every moment.
