Synopsis
'The View in Winter' is a timeless and moving study of the perplexities of living to a great age, as related by a wide range of men and miners, villagers, doctors, teachers, craftsmen, soldiers, priests, the widowed and long-retired. Their voices are set in the context of what literature, art, religion and medicine over the centuries have said about ageing. The result is an acclaimed and compelling reflection on an inevitable aspect of our human experience.
