Arthur Black's mastery of storytelling is clear, compelling, and pure entertainment from first page to last, Feb 9 2006
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Pitch Black (Hardcover)
Pitch Black is a very highly recommended compendium of the wit and wisdom, the observations and commentaries, the experiences and anecdotes of Arthur Black, one of Canada's best-known humorists. His topics range from suburban heroes to garage sales as a blood sport, from the medical applications of duct tape to the real differences between men and women, from how to reuse that Commodore 64 gathering dust in the closet to why writers dread cocktail parties and barbeques. Arthur Black's mastery of storytelling is clear, compelling, and pure entertainment from first page to last!
