Leave the Building Quickly - True Stories

Cynthia Kaplan, acclaimed author of Why I''m Like This , once again casts her gimlet eye upon the current state of her affairs. Also of your affairs, and some other people''s affairs as well. Journey with her as she humiliates herself in a variety of locales and fearlessly takes on all the important issues of the day--including her family, intelligent design, Narnia, and New England''s deer population. Leave the Building Quickly is a hilarious, moving, bitingly honest, take-no-prisoners incursion into the kind of real-life daily circumstances that inspire us to crouch in the linen closet at three in the morning. But that''s okay because Kaplan''s there, too. And she''s brought snacks.
