Title: A Bargain
Review: For the price of one book you get the value of two booksand a movie. First, there is a very funny story. So, you getan entertaining novel. Second, it has so many examples ofthe gulf between "what is said" and "what is heard" that youalso get a text to use in marriage counseling or employeerelations. (It would brighten up both of those scenes.) Third,Kotzwinkle's language paints such vivid pictures that youthink you have already seen the movie.
