Living among Free-Range Humans A Collection of Humor on the Species

Living among Free-Range Humans: A Collection of Humor on the Species is a collection of her readers? favorite columns over the six years since author Sharon May began writing her humor column for the Hurricane Valley Journal, a newspaper serving the fast-growing southern Utah community of the Hurricane Valley, doorway to the Grand Circle of National Parks of the Southwest. The book?s eight chapters focus on the ordinary craziness of life that we all experience, such as modern life?s droll ironies, the universally humorous scuffles in the female-male relationship, the not-always delightful whimsy of Mother Nature, the weirdness of pet behavior, a witty take on the holiday experience, the sometimes peculiar regionalisms encountered in moving to and taking up life in small-town southern Utah, a comic look inside the high school classroom, and the laughable personal foibles we can all relate to, not the least of which is encountering the disconcerting changes of middle age?all delivered in an entertaining mix of intelligent wit and gentle sarcasm. This is a book that is universal in its appeal to both genders and to all ages. You are bound to recognize something of your own experiences in its pages, something sure to elicit a knowing chuckle, brighten your outlook, and keep a grin on your face.
