Clowns and Rats Scare Me
Cary Clack, Naomi Shihab Nye (Foreword)
Publisher: Trinity University Press
ISBN: 1595340378   DDC: 814.6   Edition: Paperback; 2009-05-01

Summary:

San Antonians love Cary Clack for the sparkle of wit and wisdom he
brings to them in his column in the San Antonio Express-News. But his
style and sensibility make his work equally popular far beyond that
city. He offers pithy, probing coverage of national issues such as
terrorism, racism, and child abuse, but his keen sense of humor often
turns to the stuff of everyday life such as the inexplicable power of
Krispy Kreme doughnuts and his terror of clowns. The columns
collected here sample the best of 13 years' worth of Clack's amusing
and thoughtful commentaries, and begin with an enlightening foreword
by noted poet Naomi Shihab Nye.
