The Old Man's Last Sauna

Timeless stories for the 20th and 21st centuries

From odes to loves found and loves lost, to a clear-eyed look at what it takes to destroy a strong man; from the web of love between a mother and a son, to a father’s understanding of the difference between his child’s imagination and the lies that lurk in the minds of the boy’s grandparents …

Carl Dow offers stories that will move, amuse and even shock with their subtle explorations of the human spirit.

The Old Man’s Last Sauna introduces a powerful voice for the 21st century, one born of the turmoil, violence and struggle for justice and understanding that marked so much of the 20th.
