The ages of man

Presents Wilder's series of stirring short works that capture four important stages of life. Infancy. Nursemaid Millie brings baby Tommy to Central Park in the hopes of a rendezvous with handsome patrolman Avonzino. Childhood. A child's-eye view of the grown-up world, as a father, mother, and their three children play a revealing game of make-believe. Youth. To his horror, middle-aged Captain Gulliver finds himself marooned, dying of hunger and thirst in "The country of the young"--a world of youth so mistrustful of age that anyone approaching thirty is ritually dispatched. The rivers under the earth. On a point of land jutting into a lake in southern Wisconsin, the Carter family--Mr. and Mrs. Carter and their teen-aged son and duaghter--enjoys a summer's eve.
