Book: Without Feathers by Woody Allen

I got this at a used book sale on campus in hard cover for 75 cents.

It is from the early 70s so it is a very different Woody Allen than the one currently making movies. Some of the pieces seem a bit forced - I expect they are taken too directly from stand up routines. Some of the others are just wonderful. I laughed the most at "If the Impressionists had Been Dentists" and also quite enjoyed the two short plays "Death" and "God".

Recommended if you like the "early, funny" movies.
