Richard Klein — Cigarettes Are Sublime
Picador 1995 Paperback, 224pp. 'An elegant display of prose. [Klein's] polemic is bravely cranky. The book is important for . situating the act of smoking in Western culture and telling us addicts, without condescension, what kind of dance we're doing 10 or 20 times a day.'--Laura Mansnerus, 'New York Times Book Review' '[A] wise and timely book: it is also sly, funny, and peculiarly seductive. [A] remarkable achievement.'--John Banville, 'New York Review of Books'. (ISBN: 9780330340168). Good.
