Read Vertigo Park and Other Tall Tales Storyline:
A hilarious and wickedly original collection of pieces and cartoons by one of America's funniest writers.The title story (as sweeping as any novel but without the annoying length, more glamorous than a miniseries but without commercial interruption) follows a tragic (not to give anything away) love triangle (an idealistic screen goddess and her two unshakable lovers--who happen to become the last two presidents of the United States) through decades of (imaginary) American history. Here is some of what you'll find: in "Marred Bliss," the fractured puns of a love quadrangle ("Maybe you'd rather ram off with her! She's been trying to reduce you since she got here")...in "Diary of a Fan," the diarist's deepest thoughts ("I saw Sigourney Weaver on the street today. I pity her")...in "The Whom of Kaboom," a perilous cruise with Jack the Hipper, sculptor of the famous Venus de Mylar...and in "A Tall Tale," a meeting with America's tallest tall-tale hero, Johnny...Pages of Vertigo Park and Other Tall Tales :
