Without skipping a beat, one of America's favorite humorists, the late Lewis Grizzard, tells of the early stirrings of his wayward heart in the backseat of a '57 Chevy and the ominous murmurings that led him at age thirty-five to major surgery and the real answer to his question, \"How much is this going to hurt?\" In the process, he discovers all the ways a heart can break. Young love. Three marriages. His father's death. And why his entire future suddenly depended on a little pig. He tells the truth--the whole truth--the kind that has readers laughing through their tears. United Press International said, \"It makes you feel good to know a person can face the tubes, wires, knives, and needles of major heart surgery and make you laugh about it--hilarious!\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLEWIS GRIZZARD (1946-1994) was a writer and humorist known for his commentary on the American South.
