Publisher's Synopsis
For author Susan Evans, "writing personal essays is a cathartic experience," one that does its job by "lightening my load." As you read this collection of essays-funny, tragic, cringey, nostalgic, wise, and occasionally whiny-you will feel your load lightening as well.You Have to Laugh: Riffs on Aging is for anyone in the latter half of life who agrees that while growing old can be terrifying, it can also be pretty funny--that is, if you learn to look for the light in the dark.
"You don't have to laugh, of course, but once you start, it becomes a habit."
