SynopsisThe first new collection from Allen in 25 years features 18 inimitable pieces, ten of which were originally published in The New Yorker. These pieces are classic Woody Allen--sharp, funny, witty, intelligent, and irresistible., The first new collection from Allen in 25 years features 18 inimitable pieces, ten of which were originally published in "The New Yorker." These pieces are classic Woody Allen--sharp, funny, witty, intelligent, and irresistible., "I am greatly relieved that the universe is finally explainable. I was beginning to think it was me."-Woody Allen Here, in his first collection since his three hilarious classics "Getting Even, Without Feathers, "and "Side Effects", Woody Allen has managed to write a book that not only answers the most profound questions of human existence but is the perfect size to place under any short table leg to prevent wobbling. "I awoke Friday, and because the universe is expanding it took me longer than usual to find my robe, " he explains in a piece on physics called "Strung Out." In other flights of inspirational sanity we are introduced to a cast of characters only Allen could imagine: Jasper Nutmeat, Flanders Mealworm, and the independent film mogul E. Coli Biggs, just to name a few. Whether he is writing about art, sex, food, or crime ("Pugh has been a policeman as far back as he can remember. His father was a notorious bank robber, and the only way Pugh could get to spend time with him was to apprehend him") he is explosively funny. In "This Nib for Hire, " a Hollywood bigwig comes across an author's book in a little country store and describes it in a way that aptly captures this magnificent volume: "Actually, " the producer says, "I'd never seen a book remaindered in the kindling section before."
