"In today's world of uncertainty and weighty decisions, Adding A Little Levity, is the perfect bedtime read. A chapter a night will leave you smiling, as you drift off into a peaceful sleep. The problem is—you'll be chuckling in your dreams." — Sally Fernandez, Author of the "Max Ford Thriller" Series.
Make someone smile and you have done well; make someone laugh out loud, and you have achieved something greater. This witty, wry collection of essays takes the reader from a blue-collar boyhood in Queens across the river to cutthroat Wall Street, across the seas to Japan and Puerto Rico, and back again. Reality and hyperbole collide in tales of life's universal and painful experiences—the big interview, meeting your future in-laws, and travel debacles galore—where to "add a little levity" is to survive, and thrive!

Autoren-Porträt von Robert J. Licalzi
Robert J. Licalzi was born and raised in Queens, New York, where his fondest childhood memories were the invention of color television and his first day as a teenage when his father bought an air conditioner to cool the family apartment after 12 sweltering summers. After graduating from Queens College, Bob began working for an international bank. A few years later, in the late 70's, the bank assigned Bob to sunny Puerto Rico at a time when sunblock did not have numbers. There, Bob met and married Diane. After job assignments in Tokyo, London and New York, and after having four children, Bob retired from the bank, moved the family to Puerto Rico, and learned the importance of SPFs (Sun Protection Factors). Bob has always enjoyed writing, particularly essays. He has written hundreds of opinion pieces, had many published as letters to the editor in various newspapers, briefly ran a blog called Puerto Rico Commentary which presented his views of Puerto Rico's economic policies, and compiled a few hundred letters written to family and friends in Keeping Sentiments Alive (not published). More recently, he began writing humorous essays, and was encouraged to publish (Adding a Little Levity) mostly by his children who, while still on allowance, found every one of them funny.
