Résumé
"Sixty" is a report from the front, a dispatch from the Maginot Line that divides the middle-aged from the soon to be elderly. Ian began keeping a diary with a Facebook post on the morning of February 4, 2014, his… sixtieth birthday. As well as keeping a running tally on how he survived the year, Ian explored what being sixty means physically, psychologically and intellectually. "What pleasures are gone forever? Which ones, if any, are left? What did Beethoven, or Schubert, or Jagger, or Henry Moore, or Lucien Freud do after they turned sixty?" And most importantly, "How much life can you live in the fourth quarter, not knowing when the game might end?" Bestseller. 2015.
