Why animals sleep so close to the road (and other lies I tell my children) - Susan Konig: A Book Review
Susan Konig is a journalist. She has a husband and three children. When she began to tell the story of selling your home, purchase a new home, and away from the city, had only two children. So begins the modern history of personal "white flight" Konig (words of the critic, not Konig). And that story is hilarious. In Why animals sleep so close to the road (and other lies to tell my children), Susan Konig are having trouble selling her apartment, finding a new home, closing at a new home, caring for their children , nursing it through a third pregnancy strange, doing freelance work, fighting an infestation of rats, fighting the flu - and all before she goes through hell to moving.And mentioned that she was pregnant during all this? It is an incredible achievement that Susan Konig remained sane. Anyway, she gets a new home, installs, finds that life in the suburbs has its own challenges. She faces a skunk, a flooded home, life with a newborn child third parties (such as elderly parents with two children, an altogether different challenge), how to stay fit through pregnancy (age becomes a factor) , finding babysitters, find time for herself, her work, everything.All time, apparently, Susan Konig apparently taking notes to write this book, an account of a whirlwind of a full life and fun. She refers to younger days of anxiety and concern for the future, for herself and her family. It puts everything in a book that require a little more than two hundred books pages.The is really a moving experience. And who can resist a title like: Why animals sleep so close to the road (and other lies to tell my children). It is a title that says: One has to "Pick me up and read me!" - Only to find out where it came as a title that sounds crazy. Readers find the answer when Konig skills as a parent to care, evidence gently explain to your child about roadkill ... If the player is in that age bracket where the denial and acceptance are at war, where the solution of something to avoid the effort of the fight becomes a more entertainer by day (but ultimately self-destructive), then the reader will understand perfectly well that Susan Konig came from when she wrote Why animals sleep so close to the road. Perhaps reading fun trip Konig through the trials and tribulations of middle-aged mother will help fairly easily through their own transition. Sometimes it is a strange kind of relief just knowing that some people have a lifestyle even crazier and more hectic than their own.
