Casual Observations

'Casual Observations is a collection of loosely connected essays and poetry covering topics from sex and aging to international politics. Its tone is warm and sardonic, and its central dialogues entertainingly trace the course of a marriage between the aging narrator and his beautiful younger wife. The book's organization is somewhat cryptic, and many characters are never directly introduced. This format suggests that the book is designed to inspire varying interpretations, a goal at which it succeeds.' -Jackie, Elite Editor
