More About This Book

Overview

“My house in Seattle is across the street from an elementary school. A high fence blocks my view, but I’m close enough to overhear conversations. One morning…I heard a car door opened, then slammed shut…a woman’s voice came blasting over the fence: “BILLY…WHAT…ON…EARTH…HAVE…YOU…DONE?”…My own mother asked me the same question. Often. And I, in my turn asked my own children, who, no doubt have followed the same line of inquiry with their kids…”

Robert Fulghum’s new book begins with a question we’ve all asked ourselves: “What on Earth have I done?” As Fulghum finds out, the answer is never easy and, almost always, surprising. For the last couple of years, Fulghum has been traveling the world - from Seattle to the Moab Desert to Crete - looking for a few fellow travelers interested in thinking along with him as he delights in the unexpected: trick-or-treating with your grandchildren dressed like a large rabbit, pots of daffodils blooming in mid-November, a view of the earth from outer space, the mysterious night sounds of the desert, every man's trip to a department store to buy socks, the raucous all-night long feast that is Easter in Greece, the trials and tribulations of plumbing problems and the friendship one can strike up with someone who doesn't share the same language. What on Earth Have I Done? is an armchair tour of everyday life as seen by Robert Fulghum, one of America’s great essayists, a man who has two feet planted firmly on the earth, one eye on the heavens and, at times, a tongue planted firmly in his cheek. Fulghum writes to his fellow travelers, with a sometimes light heart, about the deep and vexing mysteries of being alive and says, “This is my way of bringing the small boat of my life within speaking distance of yours. Hello…”

    Great guide for self evaluation

    In this busy world, this book offers (demands) that you take time to consider where you're going, where you've been and what got you to where you're at at this moment. If you're at a point where you have already begun the process, this book is the guide you'll be glad you have.

    From Kindergarten and beyond

    Rev. Fulgrum continues to inspire and give reason to smile in this latest effort. He's matured (as have I) and he's become retrospective, at a time when retrospection is almost unheard of. I've always enjoyed his books, and this one is as good as any of his earlier works; perhaps even better, because the wisdom of age has added spice to his writing. Non-judgmental, Rev. Fulgrum shares with the reader, so that it becomes a personal experience, between you and the author. Very worthy read.

    A great book

    Before I even new what this book was about I watched the author talk about this book. It interested me so my wife bought it for me as a gift. I turned page after page and before I knew it I had read the book. This book was disapointing in one asspect, it was to short! I think the author and I have the same kind of sarcastic out looks on life and I found it so enjoyable. This book comes highly recommended from me and will be one that I will give as a gift to friends and family members. Watch out for trucks was a story that cracked me up as well as Players and Thanksgiving Springs for Babycakes. If you like Hummor at its finest, you need this book. I will read it time and time again!
