Laughing Through Life At Fart Height is Gordon Kirkland's 10th book. He has been entertaining readers and audiences throughout North America and beyond for over two decades. Three of his previous books have received Canada's prestigious Stephen Leacock Award of Merit for Humour. Kirkland suffered a spinal cord injury in a 1990 car accident. In 2013 he received a life-saving organ transplant. This book features some of his favorite stories from his long-running syndicated humor column, previous books, other writing, and live performances, as well as new material written for this book. It is Kirkland's stated goal for this book, that it show that, while a spinal cord injury takes away some of the sense of feeling, it need not affect the sense of humor. All of the stories contained in this book were written after his injury, and the new material was written after his organ transplant. They all show that the humor that occurs in day to day life has been every bit as evident to him as they would be to someone who had not faced those traumas. The title comes from one of Kirkland's stage lines, that sitting in a wheelchair in a line-up or in a crowded elevator puts his head in the direct line of fire for other's flatulence.
