Summary
Details

At eighty-two, Stephen Gary invites readers to journey through a life rich with lessons, laughter, and the unexpected twists of time. In Still Forming: My 82 Years of Steps and Mis-Steps, Gary continues where his first memoir (My Formative Years: One to Eighty-One) left off, chronicling not just the milestones, but the small, honest, and often humorous moments that shape a lifetime.

From frog ponds and fishing trips to courtroom challenges and Caribbean adventures, Gary's reflections capture both the wisdom and whimsy of aging with grace. His candid voice seasoned with wit, humility, and hard-earned insight reminds us that personal growth doesn't end with age; it deepens.

Perfect for readers who enjoy memoirs filled with heart, humor, and humanity, Still Forming celebrates the joys of curiosity, the sting of mistakes, and the beauty of perseverance. Each story, told in Gary's unmistakable voice, offers a glimpse into the resilience and gratitude that define a life well lived.

If you loved the reflective warmth of ""Tuesdays with Morrie"" or the humor and heart of David Sedaris, you'll find a kindred spirit in Stephen Gary.

Still Forming is not just a memoir, it's a celebration of the lifelong art of becoming.
