COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Last Call from Hall submitted by A2AE on July 27, 2020, 6:21am A wonderful companion to his Essays After Eighty collection, this book was published just weeks after Hall died at age 89. He wrote to the very end, just like his beloved wife Jane Kenyon did, and his essays are as sharp and beautifully written as ever. A must read for any fan of Halls or lover of tightly written essays.
