Kaufman invites the reader to accompany her on a journey of inquiry, from a childhood in Jewish New York in the fifties to an unknown future and back again, always returning to the present moment--its colors, its sounds. \u003cem\u003eTwilight Time\u003c\/em\u003e avoids any sentimentality or nostalgia about the past, as well as any false certainty about the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKaufman, a retired hospice chaplain, suggests that not knowing is the final frontier. She watches reverentially as her older sister ages and her mother's dying unfolds. She entertains the possibility of other life narratives, but recognizes finally that she has been imprinted by her own past in all its singularity, all its wounds. In \u003cem\u003eTwilight Time\u003c\/em\u003e, Kaufman shares a glimpse of the crowded canvas of who she has been as she prepares to enter the unknown, letting go of it all. Susie Kaufman practices mindfulness in the Plum Village tradition of Thich Nhat Hahn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Resource Publications (CA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781532680854\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.22d","brand":"Susie Kaufman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38350430765237,"sku":"9781532680854","price":13.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_d460e679-e4fe-49c8-911a-8ad8e54d83fd.jpg?v=1611644790","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/twilight-time-aging-in-amazement-9781532680854","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
