Pure Drivel - Steve Martin

Review:

Pure Drivel - Steve Martin

Martin's writing appeals far more than most comedian's. Joke-writing is hard and I have nothing but respect for the work that goes into it, but most comedians aren't practiced at or devoted to longer formats. Martin is much more appealing to me as a short story writer than as a stand-up performer, actually. Although the idea of re-reading him scares me: if it doesn't age well I don't want to know.
