Exhaustion
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Sooo clever, some of these lines, that you can only digest about seven (half a pages' worth ) at a time. Hence this review's title. But it's worth it, because you can keep your favorites from this storehouse in your back pocket, and zip one of the best out at the right moment , thereby achieving the status of "a wit."
