  • A Hilarious Collection of Steve Martin's Humor Essays

    Pure Drivel by Steve Martin is among my favorite books. If you like Martin's films and comedy, you're sure to love this book, because it's one funny essay after another.

The verbal images Martin paints on each page's canvas are the stuff of genius, and evidence of his work as a playwright and screenwriter. For a real treat, share the mirth by reading these essays aloud to someone. Matin's years as a comedian enable him to provide a volume filled with perfectly timed punchlines; even in print. People with preconceived notions of ...

    i was disapointed because i am 90% sure i ordered the cd and not the book. big disapointment. i cant verify if i made the mistake in ordering the product since the invoice does not describe if it is a book or cd that i ordered. i got it the day befor christmass and had no option but to give it as the gift. not happy.
