Dave Barry’s comic lessons from family, memory, and life beyond the backyard

Built as a collection of life lessons and comic observations, this volume moves between Barry’s reflections for his grandson and daughter, memories of the town where he grew up, and accounts of travel in Brazil and Russia. Family provides a recurring frame, but the material ranges outward to generational contrasts, suburban recollection, soccer culture, and public absurdity. The book’s structure supports dipping into individual pieces as well as following Barry’s wide-ranging subjects across the collection.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Fans of humorous personal essays and observational comedy
  • Readers interested in family, generations, and growing-up memories
  • Those looking for comic travel and cultural observations

Book overview

Now in paperback from the Pulitzer Prize winner, the hilarious New York Times-bestselling exploration of what generations can teach one another--or not.

During the course of his life, Dave Barry has learned much of wisdom, and he is eager to pass it on. Among other brilliant, brand-new pieces, Dave shares home truths with his new grandson and his daughter Sophie; explores the hometown of his youth, where all the parents seemed to be having un-Mad Men-like fun; and dives into firsthand accounts of the soccer craziness of Brazil and the just plain crazy craziness of Vladimir Putin's Russia.
