The Mute Eunuch and Other Tales from Mars Roy J Challis

Most of this material was written by the author during the sixties to roaring nineties. Some of the attitudes presented may have been influenced by John Gray's Men Are from Mars Women Are from Venus. The material was collected, rewritten, and collated during the period 2011-2020. The enterprise of collecting the material was prolonged by a stint on the Saskatchewan School Boards Association board of directors, including several years as the Urban Public representative and three years as president of the association. The major stumbling block was a series of life-threatening health conditions. Most of them were complications from a long battle with an early onset of type 2 diabetes. The collection is a miscellany of contradictions from gentle family material to adult situations galore. Adultery, stalking, and men who can't keep their johnson in their pants meet women who welcome their advances and many who don't. It's all meant to be good fun. Life is more worth living if we don't take ourselves or anybody else too seriously. Some of us have too many Neanderthal genes and others don't have enough. Classifying ourselves is so last century. Welcome to the world of Homo sapiens. The human race, better than a marathon, and everyone is a winner.
