description: Greater Backfish Journal Bob is part of a tradition based on vaudeville, carny shows, and humorists like Mark Twain, George Ade and Will Rogers - all of whom were the Columbuses of the very special ways American language was used to convey meaning, emotion and vision. Bob reminds the reader that the ordinary is a veiled miracle. At the core of his writing is his own awe at how people spend their time and what they think while they do it. Matthew Paris, NYC, author of Holy City
