Description: You won't find a style that can match Sidney Zion's for wit, savvy, clarity, fearlessness and vision. So unique is his voice that aficionados don't need a byline to know who they're reading, the lead sentence tells them. On the other hand, they don't know what he's going to say. Sidney Zion is as unpredictable as young love. And as versatile as old love. Ever since he left the courtroom for the newspaper city room, Mr. Zion has engaged and enraged with his reportage and views on crime, politics, war, music, sports, law, theater and the way we live. He was an award-winning reporter for The New York Times, a columnist for The New York Post and New York magazine, and his work has appeared in magazines and newspapers around the world. This book celebrates his 30th anniversary as a journalist, and his first collection since Read All About It! Since his recent novel, Markers, he has written a column for the New York Observer.

If you are a Sidney Zion fan, we don't have to sell you. If you're new, you're going to thank us, guaranteed.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 303-304) and index.
