This book was so very sweet and a pure pleasure to read. I'll have to look up more of Steve Martin's fiction. I listened to this as an audiobook.Daniel, the narrator, has these odd little neurosis. He can't walk off a curb like most people (at least without a whole lot of anxiety), he has his house set up so that the bulb wattage equals a certain number at all times (this causes a major glitch when he attempts to have a little liaison with a lady who wants the lights dimmed) and he suffers a few other oddities that make his life quite difficult but quite funny to those reading his tale. When he makes an attempt at running and soon after suffers the consequences I was laughing like a fool. My ride to and from work has been very enjoyable this week.
