"THE JOB OF A LOVE SONG IS TO TELL THE OLDEST STORY IN THE WORLD AND MAKE IT NEW." Nearly every week I read the NYT Book Review, but it's not often that I read a review that makes me want to go right out and buy the book in question. This review of Daniel Handler's Adverbs certainly made me want to do so. Note the comparison to the works of Nick Hornby, an author the readers of this blog love. Also note the well known pseudonym under which Handler has written most of his other books. Check out the first chapter here.
