Writer Emilio Degrazia wrote in his Introduction to Towers of Aging, in his senior residence, Amato sees up close the varied course of the aging of two hundred seniors. His poems are about them while being meditations on his own... aging. The Towers... proved to be a classroom of aging for Amato and an occasion for a poetic letting go. As those close to me grow truly old, I sometimes want to ask what it is like to feel death may be close at hand. Yet it would be unseemly, as if there weren't still life to share. But here, in Towers of Aging, Joseph Amato answers that question, and it makes the book essential reading. - Poet and writer, Suzanne Noguere
