Growing Up Mostly Normal In The Middle Of Nowhere

of a mostly happy, mostly normal, fully real life at once

both ordinary and extraordinary. Sheirer explores intensely

personal experiences and relationships with humor, surprise,

awe, suspense, and deep insight. With the depth of a memoir

and the flow of a novel, Sheirer chronicles how his simple youth

of farm, sports, school, nature, and family led him to an unlikely

adulthood as an author and college professor.
