Life Is Not a Long Quiet River by Willy Slavin
Approaching old age need not be a thing to be feared. It can and should be a time of freedom and spiritual contentment.'Exuberance, zest and maybe a touch of mischief come over in Slavin’s person and in his writing …The title is a nod to a 1988 French film Slavin loves which takes a satirical sideswipe at the Catholic Church and bourgeois morality. Elsewhere there are mentions of and reference to everyone from Socrates and TS Eliot to Bob Dylan and Frantz Fanon'
