<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Beloved storyteller Kathryn Tucker Windham's final book, an exploration of aging, is by turns humorous and poignant. The author creates an alter ego, referred to only as an old woman named She, who suddenly moves into her home and takes over her life.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This slender book, the last of twenty-nine written by Kathryn Tucker Windham over her long and productive life, will be an exquisitely bittersweet read for the many fans of the late storyteller and author from Selma, Alabama. In <em>She</em>, which Windham was putting the finishing touches on when she died in June 2011, the author describes how she woke up one day to find that she had an unwanted houseguest, an old woman who had suddenly moved into her home and was taking over her life. Windham referred to this interloper simply as <em>She</em>, and here the reader has been invited into the lively colloquy between the author--whose spirit has not changed--and her alter ego, who moves haltingly toward her earthly end. <em>She</em> will leave you laughing and crying, but also grateful and hopeful.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>With her trademark humor, Kathryn Tucker Windham addresses the reality of getting to an advanced age. -- <b>Dave "Doc" Kirby</b>, <em>Book Bites</em><br>
