A joy to read, unforgettable

Absolutely everyone should read this book—and will enjoy it! It’s chock full of anecdotes you’ll want to share at the dinner table, and it will turn your assumptions on their head (in a great way). A well-researched, important, life-affirming book. It’s also incredibly readable and fun, despite its length. A joy!
