Overview

For the last five or six years, on many afternoons around 4 or 5 p.m., Ive been overcome with the sensation that my life is effectively over. Note the personal touch here. This is not a sensation of the world ending, which has been in vogue for quite some time now, and maybe for good reason. Its a distinct feeling of being at the end of my days. My time, while technically not "up", is disappearing in the rearview mirror. The fact that this feeling of ambient doom tends to coincide with the blue-tinged, pre-gloaming light of the late afternoon lends to the whole thing a cosmic beauty, as devastating as it is awe-inspiring. As such, Ive dubbed this the catastrophe hour. Showcasing her wit, intellect and her uncanny ability to throw new light on the most ubiquitous of subjects, these essays are classic Daum. Delving into divorce, dating, music, friendship, beauty, aging, death and money, Daums unflinching honesty and exacting observations secure her reputation as one of our most important and enduring essayists.
