Recommended by Elinor Lipman, I must agree with her that this is very funny stuff. Not that Elinor and I have been talking, she recommended this in her book. Dobie is a student at the University of Minnesota and often more concerned with his relationships than his studies. Each of these stories features Dobie although his major changes, his focus on attractive women is constant. Trouble has a way of finding Dobie but he is also pretty good at squirming out of trouble. All of these stories are entertaining. Max Shulman has a way of structuring the stories that, even if you can see the ending, getting there is a wonderful trip.
