"This is the kind of book in which you'll want to underline a lot. There are good stories here, quirky observations on life and literature, jokes, wonderful quotes, and even passages of sensible advice and wisdom that will delight your grumpiest friends." -- Charles Simic, from his preface to The Poet's Notebook
