Cul de Sac

Woodland Circle, a cul de sac in the retirement community, Paradise Village, is not Wisteria Lane. However, no household is without its secrets, concerns and agendas. What our friends do not know is that a newcomer-an author who chose the peace and quiet of Paradise Village to write a book-is writing it all down. Cul de Sac is a book about a writer writing a book about life in a retirement village-and it isn't all sweet dreams and roses. As can be expected with this age group, all does not end "happily ever after." Although the book addresses issues concerning aging, the subject is treated lightly. The unique personalities of the characters, their foibles and escapades hold the attention of the reader who will find not only humor, but also romance and intrigue. This is not only an enjoyable read, but also an excellent character study and a portrayal of retirement life worthy of note.
