All of us are just passing through, and along the way, some recognizable stories pop up. The trick is to be attentive to those stories and share them, in the hopes that they may entertain and maybe even be instructive to someone along the way.

In Just Passing Through, Art Wild brings his signature wit and wisdom to the page, once again, with stories that are “mostly reasonable” and frequently show the extremes of human behavior. Readers will encounter a man who pushes his brother off a cliff and a couple of guys who steal girlfriends; one is a tax accountant in a trailer park, and the other hopes to execute a cartwheel to show he’s pretty much OK after recovering from a broken leg—just to name a few.

As Wild says, “You get the idea; there’s always poop in the water somewhere.”
