Book Reviews of The Lynda Barry Experience
Book Review: ARE YOU EXPERIENCED? WELL, DO YOU WANT TO GET MORE EXPERIENCED?!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you know who Lynda Barry is, you don't need to read this review. You either own a copy of this cd, or want one badly.
Lynda Barry's WONDERFUL collection of stories, songs, and DROP-DEAD-FUNNY answering machine messages, is easily one of my most treasured recordings. I've owned my copy for years and still play it regularly on my iPod.
Lynda is better known for her books, plays, and syndicated comic strip, Ernie Pook's Comeek. Like her other work, the stories here are filled with a rare authenticity and humanity. She can make you laugh and then suddenly tear up as you recognise something from your own childhood, long forgotten.
I sincerely consider her one of the most important American artists of my generation. I attended her first book signing back in 1981 and have remained one of her many loyal fans. I would also encourage anyone to check out her books "Cruddy" and "The Good Times Are Killing Me". The collections of her comic strip are a joy too.
If you like This American Life, David Sedaris, Sarah Vowell, or just excellent story telling, you will be so glad to own this cd.
