Elaine/ret/IN Judy, I really wasn't a fan of "My Grandmother, " but I loved his other books. I'm in a rut of books about old people; my latest: "The Little Old Lady who Broke all the Rules." I also just finished Penn Jillette's "Presto;" now that's a DIET book (20 days on nothing but potatoes seasoned by pepper! And, soooo funny. (And very vulgar.) I couldn't st...See More
