Time

by Sidney Rosen

Time is a fictionalized, autobiographical, personal introspection from author Sidney Rosen.It is told through the eyes of Henry, an octogenarian who lost his first wife and has found a true love again. Abby and Henry were married for 52 years and their loving union lasted through two sons, multiple moves and career changes, and Abby's debilitating sickness. Henry's social work career highlights a life that experienced and contributed to important social and historic events.It is the author's hope that his work moves readers to reflect on their own lives by learning from his experiences. In writing this work, Rosen didn't expect to feel such pleasurable (and sometimes painful) emotion, and hopes that readers might find the same in this thoughtfully written, instructional, and moving work.
