Without Feathers. Woody Allen, 1975.

The apotheosis of American short form humor writing. As ingenious today and exquisitely inspired in its oddball literary hilarity as it was when it was first published.

Every piece is a gem. Just scroll the table of contents and see if you aren’t dying to find out what plaintive correspondence the impressionists might have kept had they been dentists experimenting in new forms of orthodontic expression, and a host of other virtuoso pieces of satire that are fairly unmatched in my literary roamings.
