City Sidebar

For the first time, humor writer Cara Curtin has collected her favorites from the 200 "City Sidebar" columns she has written for the News-Leader. Laugh along with Cara as she shares her irreverent look at life in the island paradise of Fernandina Beach, Florida. Readers praise her ability to "unmask the extraordinary lurking behind the ordinary" and to catch the mood of the city: "She is a treasure!"
