Slices of a Life

Slices of a Life consists of memoirs and meditations---odd strange amusing touching or otherwise of interest---that readers from all walks and stages of life can enjoy. Although being to a large extent a farrago of the author's failings follies frailties foibles and other folderol and foofaraw the book nevertheless seeks to demonstrate that this former Midwestern attorney---with a knack for waxing poetic philosophizing or poking fun at himself sometimes in a single breath---is a worthy and meritorious person. Capturing the essence of life---the highs and the lows the ups and the downs triumph and defeat the good the bad and the ugly etc.---in the Midwest (specifically Chicago and its suburbs) over a long period of time the book expounds on such universal topics as family youth friendship fatherhood pets sports travel and more.
