Less Than Hero by S.G. Browne

5.0

How often do you find an indictment of the pharmaceutical industry and an insider's eating tour of Manhattan in one book? I can't decide what's more pleasurable here - the ensemble cast, with their traits and foibles, the funny plot, full of gentle violence, or the myriad scenes that take place in restaurants like Veselka, Cafe Reggio, KGB bar, Curry in a Hurry, and markets like Zabar's and Deluxe Food Market. Remind me to go to Doughnut Plant next time we're in NYC.
