Is "Without Feathers" among them?

Dewaashita,

You'd think since they wrote three of the four that they'd go one step further and write all four titles. Unless that interview is the fourth.

Some of his early standup comedy is truly hilarious, but for me this is fine for long plane trips and traveling.

Borscht, thanks.

It would be a not very unique irony for them not to produce the funniest.

Side note on "Without Feathers". I just broke down and bought myself a copy.

Woody Allen? Is this 1986?

Debucho:Woody Allen was as much known for his writing than his films early in his career. Most people know him only for his movies, but he wrote material for television, other comedians, wrote plays, and as mentioned here essays and short stories.

OK then, I guess I will be waiting for Bill Coby and Andrew Dice Clay to release theirs too. Same era I suppose.

Seems like they could have picked a better selection to start with.

Have you been in a coma since 1984? Allen was writing, directing, and acting 20 years before Andrew Dice Clay was popular and never stopped.

And audible.com has more than just Woody Allen's books. They've got thousands and have been around a few year. Thing is, only in the US and Canada. Can't get them in Japan. But thanks for keeping us informed.

Such a pity that Allen is contributing to illiteracy.
