Reviews
On Oct 27 2022, a reader said:
Like all great artists, the author is self mocking.
He writes not of mawish experiences, but with
self depreciating, witty humor, ...I laugh out loud , on average, four times every page, and wish he were coming to lunch with me today so I could show him my love for him......he is a tough bird. Unspring of sharp comments upon the silly immature. acts of all humanity, yet wrapped in compaSsion. He is of an age when acerbic remarks and gracious decorum were still present.
Get this book and improve your life, that is my advice.
