Welcome Oldguy: Superhero—Bill Trowbridge’s hilarious guide to the perils and sly pleasures of aging. In this reader-friendly collection, Oldguy earns his superhero status when, among other adventures, he takes a driver’s test, gets a physical, and confounds Death himself. Shattering preconceived notions of senescent angst and addled-ness, Trowbridge imbues Oldguy with an enviable inner life full of covert panache. Oldguy: Superhero is an exhilarating read that I didn’t want to put down except to laugh and to shake my seventy-eight-year-old head in admiration. Oh, and Oldguy sings, too. You don’t want to miss that.
