A review by satyridae
Dancing Fish and Ammonites: A Memoir by Penelope Lively

4.0

I loved the initial essay on old age very much. The rest of the book was engaging and interesting, but that first essay is what I will carry away from this. Also the dancing fish of the last essay- in which Lively shows us six object which are essential to her.

This is my first Lively, and it won't be my last. Her penetrating, warm voice is a goodness.
