Mere Anarchy by Woody Allen
3.0
I loved Woody Allen's essays in college. They were absurd, and a definite precursor to works like Steve Martin's "Cruel Shoes" and Ian Frazier's work.
However, "Mere Anarchy" felt like a retread, and given those first three books were written in the early 70's, I can't help but feel Woody should've evolved a bit more.
Of course, his last great movie came out well over 15 years ago (Husbands and Wives), so maybe the comedy gold has just tarnished over the years.
