Review: This is a little gem of a book, 50 brief chapters describing how 50 creative individuals chose to celebrate their 50th birthdays, from grandiose to modest, with a gang of friends or alone. I'm giving copies as birthday gifts to family and friends turning 50 - or 40 or 60. Any birthday can be an occasion to rejoice.
