Donald Hall's "An Old Life"
Category: Arts
Duration: 00:04:08
Publish Date: 2025-09-10 12:50:23
Description:

In the latter years of his career and life, Donald Hall became something of an expert on growing old (his essay collections Essays After Eighty and A Carnival of Losses: Notes Nearing Ninety are a breathtaking dissertation on the subject), and in today’s poem we get a glimpse of his early apprenticeship in the art. Happy reading.
