I'm re-reading this one, the only "Bridge In The Menagerie" book I currently own. The books in the series are all more or less the same - satirizing the foibles of bridge players via outlandish bidding and play sequences - but they're so perfectly done they're irresistible anyway. To say that Mollo's books are the funniest bridge books ever written is true but understates their value - they're so funny they're almost worth learning bridge just so you can read them.
