Description

A tender love story that pulses with warmth and intelligence, Live a Little is a novel about finding new meaning in life's final stages. At the age of ninety-something, Beryl Dusinbery struggles to hold on to her memories, while Shimi Carmelli, a widower among the North London widows, grapples with his own past.

As they navigate their twilight years, both characters are haunted by secrets and regrets. Yet, perhaps there is still enough left for them to heal some of the hurt inflicted along the way and discover new purpose in what's remaining. This poignant novel explores the complexities of love, loss, and human connection in later life.
