具体描述
Comprising the classic bestsellers Getting Even, Without Feathers , and Side Effects , this definitive collection of comic writings is from a man who needs no Introduction. Really–this book has no Introduction.
The Insanity Defense reveals many sides of Woody Allen as he holds forth on the most human of urges (“Why does man kill? He kills for food. And not only for food: frequently there must be a beverage”); reflects on death (“I don’t believe in an afterlife, although I am bringing a change of underwear”); and notes the effect on history wrought by trick chewing gum, the dribble glass, and other novelties. There is also an inspiring story of the futile race to beat Dr. Heimlich to the punch: “The food went down the wrong pipe, and choking occurred. Grasping the mouse firmly by the tail, I snapped it like a small whip, and the morsel of cheese came loose. If we can transfer the procedure to humans, we may have something. Too early to tell.”
All Woody Allen fans will cherish this uproarious treasury–and those who don’t enjoy The Insanity Defense are just plain crazy.
“If you don’t care if you break into helpless whoops of laughter on buses, trains, or wherever you happen to be reading it.”
–Chicago Tribune , on Without Feathers
“Brilliant flights of fancy whose comic detail and inspired silliness are at once dramatic and controlled.”
–The New York Times, on Side Effects

肚子里货不够，好多段子看不懂。看得懂的部分觉得有点出洋相。有声音有表演有文本才是完整的伍迪艾伦，只有文字太单薄，风格化不够，真的...笑不出来。只能靠脑补他故作扭捏的语气和欠抽的表情。即便著名作品如门萨的娼妓，多读两遍也只觉得是小聪明。真不知这应算是他作为作家的平庸，还是作为导演的伟大。
老头这个引经据典脑洞加信口开河打岔流段子手也真是绝了! 收录了一篇Midnight in Paris故事的粗略构思 兄弟姐妹母女姨妈梗就让他们随风而去吧 我特喜欢机智探长断案和穿越包法利夫人那两篇哈哈!
