He was a fixture at the New Yorker, publishing more than 100 short stories, including such masterpieces as "Me and Miss Mandible," the tale of a thirty-five-year-old sent to elementary school by clerical error, and "A Shower of Gold,"in which a sculptor agrees to appear on the existentialist game show Who Am I?

This is a great read for anyone who loves the writing of Donald Barthelme and/or would like to know about his life. It really covers everything and I so wish I had known all of this about him when he was alive, and I slightly knew him! ( )

This was not a very good book I got it on Kindle but it was just so uninteresting. I never actually finished it because it was so boring. To know more about the life of Donald Bartholomew but there's going to have to be a different book at a different time for that. ( )
