By Susan Sokol Blosser
This book is for anyone who is aware of growing older and has started giving thought to what that means, whether you’re 45, 57, or 68.
Perhaps you have climbed the career ladder and are wondering what comes next. Then this book is for you. Or if you have parents who are facing retirement and questioning what life holds next for them, this book is for them.
It’s a little book, but there’s a lot of thought behind it. I hope you read it, find it gives you renewed zest for life, and that you pass it on.
Drawings by famed editorial cartoonist, Jack Ohman.
Essays and reflections on wine, work, family, and the lessons learned along the way.

Belle had the talent. She had the drive. But in early 20th-century Chicago, a proper Jewish girl’s place was in the home, not on the concert stage.
Based on a true story, Violin Girl follows Belle as her gift carried her toward a life her family and society would never approve. Marriage and motherhood are her preordained future. Professional women musicians did not raise families. What was she to do?
