"Old Henry" by Joan W. Blos tells the story of an aging man’s reflections on his life and the bonds he has forged over the years. As he faces the inevitability of change and the passage of time, Henry looks back on his youth, his family, and the deep connections he has with the world around him. Through moments of nostalgia, he navigates themes of love, loss, and the enduring impact of relationships. This poignant narrative explores the beauty in ordinary moments and the wisdom that comes with age, celebrating the significance of memory and the legacy we leave behind.
