The Older You Get, the Shorter Your Stories Should Be - Robert R. Bowie

Descriere The Older You Get, the Shorter Your Stories Should Be - Robert R. Bowie

\nBob Bowie's reflections on his well-lived and adventurous life are charming, funny, poignant and wise. This book is a real pleasure to read.\n \n- Drew Faust \n \nPresident Emerita, Harvard University\n \n \n\n \nBob Bowie has written a riveting and rollicking collection of tales comprising his life as a Renaissance Man who overcame serious childhood learning disabilities to become a Harvard Poet Laureate, adventurer, lawyer and playwright. Writing with brutal candor and self-deprecating wit, Bowie unspools stories that both entertain and pack plenty of wisdom. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.\n \n \n\n \n- Ben Bradlee, Jr. \n \nPulitzer Prize-winning Editor of \n \n The Boston Globe Spotlight Team\n \n \n\n \nPearl after pearl - brief easily accessible stories that reflect the unclouded eye of the author for all things honest, compassionate and revelatory. I laughed, cried, reflected, regretted and rejoiced reading this seemingly random collection before recognizing the common thread - clear eyed humanity. Mr. Bowie's curation of his self deprecating, poignant and often hilarious moments, will become a dear friend whose warmth and comfort are there to visit again and again!\n \n \n\n \n- Ty Cobb\n \nProminent Washington, D.C. lawyer \n \n and former White House Special Counsel\n \n \n\n
