"All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their own peril. Those who read the symbol do so at their own peril."

| |  | | | From The Publisher
From a wildly imaginative meditation on who Lolita would be at age fifty, to a send-up of the warning labels on medicine bottles, these pieces, many of which first appeared in The New Yorker, hilariously and intelligently skewer the topics at hand.

Snorting in public!
-- Jerry Ecker, a researcher for Johns Hopkins Lab, August 18, 1999
Pure Drivel is Purely Hilarious!
-- Marm22, an avid reader, January 17, 2002
Also Recommended: Shopgirl by Steve Martin as well! Although, you must not expect anything like Pure Drivel. Shopgirl is a completely different genre, and told in a completely different way.
