That Beats Everything!

A Conversation on the Burden and Pleasure of Growing Older

This is a unique book about growing old: Lea Ackermann, nun and fighter for women's rights, and well-travelled journalist Michael Albus have a conversation about life: Which experiences have shaped them up into old age? Do women and men age differently? How has their view of God and the world changed? These are answers beyond the clichés, both authentic and surprising: a look into the future. 

  • Men's and women's perspective on ageing
  • Two prominent authors with highly active lives
  • Reconciliation as Purpose in Life
