The Pleasure of My Company

This is a pristine copy of Steve Martin's short novel, written after Shopgirl. Unlike his stand-up, film work, or short pieces for the New Yorker, Martin's fiction shows some humor, but a remarkable tenderness and devotion to character. In this novel, a recluse is slowly drawn out of his shell by an unusual series of events. Fine in a fine jacket, first printing. Hardcover, First Edition. ISBN 0297829696. Hyperion, New York, 2003. 001241
