Chris Erskine is the master of domestic dramedy.For three decades in the Los Angeles Times, Erskine’s columns explored modern fatherhood and family life, from the absurd to the mundane, the sublime to the heartbreaking. Now, with Lavender in Your Lemonade: A Funny and Touching Covid Diary, he tackles the New Normal with his chronicle of daily life under the frustrating, terrifying, and sometimes antic strictures of a world-wide pandemic. No, it’s not funny. And yet somehow, in Erskine’s hands, it is.Or at least it feels more tolerable. With elegant prose and an eye for telling detail, Erskine draws the simple truths from the infinite complexities of the human condition, eight hundred words at a time. In the great tradition of Erma Bombeck, Mike Royko, Dave Barry, and Bob Greene, Erskine shows us ourselves in a funhouse mirror. Praise for the Author “The worst of times brought out the best of him.”—Peter Mehlman, former Seinfeld writer/producer, author of #MeAsWel and Mandela Was Late “Every word, every sentence Chris Erskine writes makes mewant to salute him with two fingers of Jameson in shared grief, love, laughter, and life. And now he's writing about the plague of our time? Time to toast with the whole bottle.” —Gustavo Arellano, Los Angeles Times, author of Taco USA “If I have to come and hand sell this book to each of you, I’ll do it. This book is so funny and so good—and so short and so elegantly published—that you will be thrilled to own it. I tracked the guy down with a fan letter. A+” —Caitlin Flanagan, contributing editor of The Atlantic and former staff writer at The New YorkerAuthor BioChris Erskine has been chronicling life in Los Angeles for more than 30 years.
