A treasure to read then read again. Hold up the mirror, look through the windows, pay attention then bang down that closed\u003cbr\u003edoor...with bells on.\" Louis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaul Richmond won the Miller Audio Prize in the humor category for \"Life Stories.\" \"Your piece blends the observational humor of stand-up comedy, the quick tempos and wandering melodies of jazz, and the clever linguistic turns of spoken word poetry. That is so deeply human, pointing out the joys and absurdities of living in our current moment.\"\u003cbr\u003e - Ann Elise Hatjakes Contest Editor, the Missouri Review\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Richmond\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948521105\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948521109\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Human Error Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/20\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.21d","brand":"Paul Richmond","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440176771327,"sku":"9781948521109","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9b2d5c7f-4c63-4ea7-9174-da580a9cf2ca.jpg?v=1777180689","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/swimming-lessons-on-the-titanic-paul-richmond-9781948521109","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
