false http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg 6385277 3 <DIV><DIV>From John Grogan, author of the <I>New York Times</I> bestsellers <I>Bad Dogs Have More Fun</I>, <I>Marley and Me</I>, and <I>The Long Way Home</I>, comes a new collection of more than eighty newspaper articles from the <I>Philadelphia Inquirer</I> written when he was a columnist there.<P><I>In Life Is Like A Sailboat</I>, John Grogan shows us all sides of the human condition—pieces that reflect his unique understanding of the crazy-quilt world we inhabit. From the fragility of life almost gone in an instant at a crosswalk, to avoiding the shoals of adolescence, to cell phones driving us to distraction (as we drive!), to turning the tables on telemarketers, to the Iraq War coming home to a small town in Pennsylvania—these pieces are filled with insight and sensitivity, laced with humor and understanding. In his own very unique way, John Grogan makes all of us feel more connected to each other and less like strangers living in a strange land.</DIV> 6573487 7 4 2009 Life Is Like a Sailboat: Selected Writings on Life and Living from The Philadelphia Inquirer total:5|4:4|3:1| 5 19 29 1 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 4 0 false Mon May 25 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu May 14 23:12:57 -0700 2009 Tue May 26 08:25:30 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Fri Dec 04 22:01:36 -0800 2009 Fri Dec 04 22:01:36 -0800 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Tue Oct 13 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 13 18:19:02 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 13 18:19:58 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Thu Sep 17 19:15:31 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 17 19:15:31 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Mon Sep 14 14:00:47 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 14 14:00:47 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Tue Sep 08 10:47:15 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 08 10:47:15 -0700 2009 6580565 1 0 3.80 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6580565-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Thu Jul 09 08:49:24 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 09 08:49:24 -0700 2009 6580565 1 0 3.80 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6580565-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Thu Jul 09 04:00:22 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 09 04:00:22 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Thu Jul 09 00:40:53 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 09 00:40:53 -0700 2009 6580565 1 0 3.80 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6580565-life-is-like-a-sailboat 4 0 false Thu Jul 02 08:51:19 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 02 08:51:19 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Sat Jun 27 17:44:26 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 27 17:44:26 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Thu Jun 25 03:43:12 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 25 03:43:12 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Wed Jun 24 12:06:22 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 24 12:06:22 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 3 0 false Mon Jul 06 07:12:46 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 14 02:05:55 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 06 07:12:46 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Sun May 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 05 17:24:40 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 05 17:26:11 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Thu Jun 04 12:18:21 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 04 12:18:21 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Sun May 24 15:39:20 -0700 2009 Sun May 24 15:39:26 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Sat May 23 07:24:19 -0700 2009 Sat May 23 07:24:19 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Thu May 21 23:03:46 -0700 2009 Thu May 21 23:03:46 -0700 2009 6385277 1593155395 9781593155391 4 1 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255711635m/6385277.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6385277-life-is-like-a-sailboat 0 0 false Wed May 20 10:55:04 -0700 2009 Wed May 20 10:55:04 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=6385277
