| Publisher Description: What do YOU Think? Brief Essays from Real Life is a thought-provoking collection by author Bill Ramsey that explores contentious topics like sports, politics, news media, and technology, as well as daily life themes such as mirth and satire, friends and family - even Mother Nature. These well-thought-out pieces are written in a manner designed to be not only stimulating, challenging, and informative - but, above all, entertaining EDITORIAL REVIEWS "Because of his writing skill and thoughtfulness of the content, Bill Ramsey's 'What Do YOU Think?' elevates essay from the genre of a blog to a literature of joy. The reading is so pleasing it comes close to being a healing. Simply a splendid collection." - Terry Kay, author of "To Dance with the White Dog" and "The Book of Marie" "These short, succinct pieces challenge you to think-to ponder-issues large and small. Whether you respond 'Yes ' or 'Hmm?' or 'Not me, ' you'll remember and consider their point. Bonus: a pleasure to read." - Celia Miles, author of "The Body at Wrapp's Mill" and "Sarranda's Heart" "Bill Ramsey is guilty of eroteme. Not once but repeatedly. He can't help himself. Even his title begins with 'What' and ends with a question mark, an eroteme. His book is original and sly, often going to wonderful and unexpected places." - John Shannon, reviewer |
