These charming sketches are a refreshing break from the commonplace affairs of ordinary life. They include a humorous encounter in a Bronx hardware store, a walk around the thirty-two-mile shore of Manhattan, a jolly portrayal of an English cattery, lyric evocations of his life in a former sanatorium/monastery, and opinion pieces on language, the church, and patriotism. Impractical choices and fine adventures are told in the style of Willcott's award-winning newspaper column and blog.

Autorenporträt
Paul Willcott is a lapsed Texan with four degrees from the University of Texas, including a Ph.D. in applied linguistics and a law degree. He is a veteran magazine writer, editor, publisher, award-winning newspaper columnist and blogger, novelist, and one-poem poet. He has lived in Baghdad, Amman, Tehran, London, Hong Kong, Zurich, Washington, D.C., New York City, Saranac Lake, New York, and elsewhere. For many years, he and his wife Ann Laemmle lived in a former tuberculosis sanatorium/monastery in the Adirondack Mountains. They now live in New York City, where they feel more at home than anyplace they have lived.
