PHILADELPHIA, April 2, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- First-time author Irene Lapidus combines humor and imagination in "Office Chronicles" (published by iUniverse). First published in 2013, the book is set for a new press campaign this year in order to reach a wider audience and initiate laughter, which the author believes, is desperately needed today.

"Office Chronicles" a book of short funny stories that allows readers to see humor in the midst of life's series of challenges and difficulties. Set in the fictional business office called "Claims Department," the stories follow the shenanigans of its crew and other wacky characters.

An excerpt from the story "DO YOU MIND?" reads:
John let go of his nose and straightened his new beige tie, also saved for special occasions. "Are you kidding me? What's he talking about? What happened to the meeting we were supposed to have? I came just like he asked . . . on time."

Morning was slipping away and something had to be done about this ridiculous situation.

A book about laughing at life's circumstances, "Office Chronicles" ultimately aims to help readers relieve their built up stress and teach them to understand other people a little better. To purchase a copy, visit https://www.amazon.com/Office-Chronicles-Irene-Lapidus/dp/1475976909.
