in this theater of the absurd, Life on the Loose rescues my friend's lost luggage.

Her bags failed to arrive in Milan as she departed for two weeks in Italy. Her tour group, on a tight schedule moved on after the leader said "You can shop for clothes in the next town." She finds abundant size two outfits but she needs size twelve. After two weeks in the same jeans, she returns home to deal with American Airlines. A week later they locate her luggage but refuse to release them until she can prove they belong to her."Can you identify something in a bag?" The employee asks. "A blue shirt and jeans," she says. That's not good enough!!! He asks for the name of a book and she says, "I don't remember the name but the author signed it. Her name is Cari." "Is it Life on the Loose?" He asks.
in this absurd scenario, he finally agrees to release her luggage, four weeks from the day she landed in Milan.
​Life on the Loose is now her favorite book.
