Any good recs for fiction that deals with the aging process? i.e. losing those you love, growing apart from friends/making new ones, how a person changes viewpoints from say his 20s into his 50s and 60s (maybe from carelessness in youth to responsibility in adulthood), etc. Already read Steppenwolf.
