Om Joie De Vivre, as I See It

Not many people can say they gave up a successful career as a general surgeon to teach yoga ... but not everyone is James K. Weber, M.D. In this collection of essays and vignettes, he explores how life often happens in unexpected ways: at times humorous, frightening, or sad. Drawing liberally from a palate of characters and places across a wide span of time, he reveals enlightening treasures in commonplace activities. While the stories focus on the author, he also emphasizes the roles his family, assorted friends, and acquaintances have played in his life. New York City and baseball often are highlighted-and musical, historical, and literary heroes add their flavor to the stew. Weber also looks back at being a singer, swim meet official, father to four girls, and his enduring love affair with his wife, Mary, as well as their interactions with their assertive chihuahua, Louis le Premier du Lac. Written in just four months during the coronavirus scourge-when the author wanted to do more than teach yoga via Zoom-this book will leave you laughing out loud.
