Title: Where are the good ol' days when we could burn books?
Review: Quite frankly, this book is wasted on a culture that celebrates Oprah, "Friends," and everything Bruckheimer. It's too good of a book to be put in the same strip malls that cough up today's entertainment and it knows it.The dialogue is fierce, the characters are sharp, and the narration is spot on. Oh, and it's funny as hell. That explains, of course, why you've never heard of it.Were there any justice, this book would be required reading. It could serve as the litmus test for some sort of bare-minimum competency test where if you dare said "I don't get it" more than twice, or didn't laugh at least once per page, they would strip you of voting rights, citizenship, and dignity. But, no. Instead those are the people who head corporations, reguarly attend focus groups, and wind up featured in the latest edition of People.Oh well.It's a good book.
