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!"

Perry Block is a writer living in Havertown PA, which is close enough to the Philadelphia Main Line so that he can wrongly brag he lives there. In his lifetime, he has succeeded in virtually every sphere of human endeavor, but failed miserably in the rectangular and triangular ones. Writing has been a passion for Perry ever since he learned that it does not require math. His website is at www.perryblock.com. "Perry Block - Nouveau Old, Formerly Cute" is his first book. Kindly put your life on hold waiting for the next one.
