If Two Trains Are Traveling in Opposite Directions . . . . I Don't Care What the Apples Cost

Using observations from the author's own life, this book shares memories of things not so funny at the time but recollected on with humor in a way that everyone can relate to and find familiarity in his or her own life experiences. Michelle Gussow's amusing reflections of growing up Jewish in the Midwest triggered many memories and evoked a certain nostalgia. Whether she is reflecting on felt boards in nursery school, being an overzealous television watcher or recalling a pasta salad that ruined a Bar Mitzvah, she strikes a chord and brings a smile. - Jon Bernstein Screenwriter "Ringmaster"
