Dave Barry hits a home run!!!,
By thernes@c2i.net (Bodoe, Norway) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The World According to Dave Barry (Hardcover)
Being form Norway, I discovered Dave Barry when I was living i New Orleans for some time. And what a great author. And trust me, if you want to read a book that will make you roll on the floor laughing, then buy this. You get three of Mr. Barry's very best books and only that makes it worth the price. In theese books Dave barry guides you through his wonderful stories, that he's not making up, telling you abut the time he painted his lawn and he shares his innermost feelings about his dogs. (They are stupid)(The dogs, not Mr. Barry's thoughts) Anyway..... This could go on and on, but I'll be short.Buy the book. You'll never regret it !

A fantastic book,

This review is from: The World According to Dave Barry (Hardcover)
This is a compilation of three books, 2 of which are columns from the mid 80s through early 90s. The third is Dave Barry Turns 40, a book about aging. All are hilarious. I have sent this book to people in asia and europe and they have all loved it. This book is simply wonderfully funny and entertaining.

Too "Funnily" True -(Even Today),
By
This review is from: The World According to Dave Barry (Hardcover)
Published in the mid 1990's, this book presents a compilation of various "news" columns (sometimes extended) that were written by Mr. Barry for the Miami Herald. Because of the time period in which these articles were written, some of the material is seriously out-of-date, as was the (often commented on) hairstyle then sported by Mr. Barry. Also, from a female perspective, some of the book's material was a bit too male-oriented for me (personally) to apppreciate. That said, I found the book OVERALL to be highly entertaining - hysterically funny in its actual and exaggerated portrayals of the aging of the (white) baby boomer generation. Reading the book also sparked my curiousity about Mr. Barry's growth since its publication - an interest I have so far not had time to pursue.
