Title: Brilliantly funny
Product review: Richard Russo is one of the finest authors alive. The joy of his writing is that it is so beautifully crafted you never get the sense that he's "Writing." While "Empire Falls" and "Nobody's Fool" may be considered his masterpieces, "Straight Man" is the funniest book I've ever read. Laugh out loud funny. And like his other books, it is full of richly developed characters that always ring true.
