Would there be an unabridged version, or is that only humor?
Humor, my cheese eating friend. It's only the one novel, which is also the script. Goldman is one of the only writers able to get away with serving up a script in novel form and actually have it considered.

Right now I'm reading "The Dream and the Tomb," a big thick monster of a narrative about the Crusades. History book. For fun. I'm getting old.
