Elliot Glicksman wrote this book to answer all
of life’s questions, even ones people never had. For
decades he wanted to write a book in the worst way, and with
So Far So Good, he might have achieved his goal.
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll roll your eyes. And looming over all the humor you’ll succumb to the gigantic heart at the core of Elliot’s story.
Whether he’s opening for Phyllis Diller or Jerry Seinfeld,
defending crime victims in a courtroom, or being a husband
and dad and grandpa, Elliot documents his experience in this
book with joy and mirth that you will find irresistible.
