Hilarious, lively stories inspired by Mordecai Richler'schildhood. The time is the 1940s, the place is Montreal's St. Urbain Street. Tansky's Cigar & Soda is a home for its argumentative regulars, secret copies of "The Art Of Kissing"are consulted, and the resident Jews eye the French with suspicion. On the street, the famous Duddy Kravitz proffers sex advice, which is much needed because Mordecai'sMother had told him babies come from department stores and had threatened to exchange him for a girl. It adds up to a feast of wit and nostaligia from our acclaimed author.
