Nouveau Old, Formerly Cute

Perry Block is a Baby Boomer who turned around one day in 1978 and suddenly found himself 40 years later at an age he always thought was exclusively reserved for people's parents. Through a series of often hilarious essays, Perry tries to make sense of it all, aided by a host of real and fictitious characters including Batman, Cupid, the Legendary Jewish Vampire Vlad the Retailer, Richard Nixon, Moses, and more. This book is fun for Boomers and non-Boomers alike. There are generous doses of parody and satire like "The Metamorphosis, the Musical," "If Batman had a Jewish Mother," and "If Albert Camus Wrote Commercials for Colonial Penn Life Insurance," and a wide variety of stories that feature humorous life situations common to folk of all ages ... even millennials!"
