Book Commercials & Misanthropic Observations

Dear Joseph Epstein

Thank you for an enjoyable weekend of reading

I picked up copies of both Snobbery and Friendship last week from Borders and have enjoyed the refreshing observations, insight, and humor. It has been like sorbet for my brain, and I feel re-charged to face daily life after having had a rest in observation of human behavior. I look forward to acquiring a copy of Envy the next time I visit a book store.

I find myself wishing I sounded more like you write in my daily conversation, but my co-workers would be confused by the sudden improvement in vocabulary and wit and I promise not to try.

Thanks again,
