Time Tested Books is pleased to welcome Bay Area writer and teacher Susan Moon for the presentation of her forthcoming new book of essays, This Is Getting Old: Zen Thoughts on Aging with Dignity and Humor (Shambhala).

With advance praise from Publishers Weekly and authors such as Maxine Hong Kingston and Sylvia Boorstein, This Is Getting Old balances humor and intimate insight in short essays (titles include "Senior Moment, Wonderful Moment"; "What If I Never Have Sex Again?"; and "Alone With Everyone") that Norman Fischer calls "sweet, mellow, funny, wise, sad, and deeply affecting."

Susan Moon has been a Zen student since 1976, currently practicing with Zoketsu Norman Fischer’s Everyday Zen sangha. For many years she was the editor of Turning Wheel, the journal of socially engaged Buddhism, and she is the author of the humorous cult classic The Life and Letters of Tofu Roshi and editor of Not Turning Away: The Practice of Engaged Buddhism. Copies of This Is Getting Old are available at Time Tested Books.
