Summary: WASP Works' Apt Stings and Arrows
Comment: W.A.S.P. Works by Patricia Ladew is a stinging (pun intended)review of life in 20th Century US. The targets are good ones (Nixon, eating habits of the elite class, living in cities vs. country, children and their habits, and others)and the treatments are funny and reflective of a somewhat jaudniced view of the times. The essays remind me of the musings of a particularly intelligent participant in the follies associated with trying to make sense of the world around us. Highly recommended.

Summary: QUICK-WITTED AT 100 M.P.H.
Comment: This collection of essays is nifty. Each and every piece
reflects author Ladew's clearly fine intelligence. Set your
reading odometer to 100 m.p.h. so you don't miss the trenchant
observations and perceptions that whiz by you on every page.
Skewering the pretentious and pouncing on the ridiculous, she
covers a lot of territory with her unblinking and ever-truthful
eye. Her pen is her scalpel, but, always, there is an underlying
humanity. A great read!
