“When Gregory Clark entered the newspaper profession years ago, he was appalled by the number of heavy thinkers writing on the problems of the world. ‘I decided that someone would just have to sit in a corner of the newspaper and play marbles, just to help the reader keep his balance.’ Over the years, Greg contributed his share of serious writing—but he never forgot his corner. From it has come some of the most enjoyable writing in Canadian journalism, the humorous and whimsical flashes of life that have made him the most widely read newspaperman in Canada. Clark runs the gamut from his experiences. as fellow correspondents in the Second World lost their expense accounts betting on his snoring—to the afternoon at the cottage where he was served mange cure as a substitute for Lapsang Souchong Tea. These shorties are rich with humour, much of it at the expense of the author. The delight of it is, they still keep coming, from a font that never seems to run dry.” Canadian Press
