Reviews
From: Booklist By Mary Carroll Readers whose teeth are set on edge by the excessive niceness evoked by the holiday season will relish the not-so-nice scalawags celebrated by U.S. writers in this collection. Editor Nickles takes her epigraph from Richard Nixon ("I am not a crook") and gathers a mixture of short stories (e.g., O. Henry, Mark Twain, Kate Chopin, Katherine Ann Porter, and Dorothy Parker), excerpts from longer fiction (Hammett's The Maltese Falcon) and nonfiction (Shere Hite, Russell Baker, Errol Flynn, and Ann Landers), humor from "professionals" like Woody Allen, Alexander Woollcott, S.J. Perelman, James Thurber, and Groucho Marx, and even a bit of poetry (e.e. cummings' "Frankie and Johnny") and drama (an excerpts from John Sayles' script for the film Eight Men Out ) Certainly not an essential acquisition, but it may be useful for parents who've spent too long watching "Barney" or altruistic types who volunteer too much time at the local recycling center or organic-food cooperative.

Synopsis
Drinking, Smoking & Screwing made quite an impression, but it didn't tell the whole story. This deviously inspiring plunge mto the netherworld of grifters, fibbers, shysters, and scam artists finally settles the score. With over twenty-five page-turning excerpts from this century's wildest and most entertaining American writers -- including Dorothy Parker, Dashiell Hammett, Woody Allen, Russell Baker, Cynthia Heimel, Tobias Wolff, Mark Twain, and Groucho Marx -- Lying, Cheating & Stealing brings back the days when getting rich and getting even were more important than multitasking, working out, and recycling. This priceless collection will remind everyone how good it feels to get what you want -- in bed, in the bank, and just in the nick of time. Bad boys and girls rejoice Once again revenge is sweet, cheaters prosper, and nice guys finish last., Over 25 page-turning excerpts from this century's wildest and most entertaining American writers-including Dorothy Parker, Woody Allen, Tobias Wolff, and Groucho Marx-bring back the days when getting rich and getting even were more important than multitasking, working out, and recycling.
