S. J. Perelman has gone a bit out of fashion so it's wonderful to have this lovely-looking fat book of his writing. Inside, the print quality and typsetting are a bit uneven: it looks like someone just took some old books apart, photographed them and then put them all together. But I ignored this and concentrated on Perelman's stuff. He's very very funny, truthful, wise, silly and SO stylish. And what an enormous vocabulary. Not showing off, he just always has exactly the right word to hand. I was forced to look some up. A wonderful and memorable read. Highly recommended.
