After thirty-five years as a book editor in New York City, Ann Patty stopped working and moved to the country. Bored, aimless, and lost in the woods, she hoped to challenge her restless, word-loving brain by beginning a serious study of Latin at local colleges.
As she begins to make sense of Latin grammar and syntax, her studies open unexpected windows into her own life.
Her book is Living with a Dead Language: My Romance with Latin.
