About the Book

Praise for Mary Langton’s writing from The Times Herald-Record: “…witty essays…” “…short, mostly humorous essays—the kind of reading that can be done in spurts, when you need a break or a laugh.” “…an acerbic sense of humor…allow[s] readers to look at their Hudson Valley town or the world’s problems and not take them as seriously.”
