The brilliant life of Eudora Honeysett : a novel / Annie Lyons. First edition. New York, NY : William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollinsPublishers, [2020] 372 pages ; 22 cm. Wanting to organize an assisted death on her own terms, world-weary octogenarian Eudora Honeysett forges an unexpected bond with exuberant ten-year-old Rose, who drags her to tea parties, shopping sprees, and other social excursions. Eudora Honeysett has lived a full life, and witnessed the indignities and suffering of old age. At eighty-five, her end will be on her terms. A call to a clinic in Switzerland sets the plan in motion. Then she meets ten-year-old Rose Trewidney, a pint-sized rainbow of color and sparkling cheer. Eudora finds herself embarking on a series of adventures with Rose and their neighbor, the recently widowed Stanley. Eudora is reminded of her own childhood-- and realizes she must come to terms with what lies ahead. 20200923. Older women Fiction. Neighbors Fiction. Friendship Fiction. Euthanasia Fiction.
