Total lack of interest in Martin or Lewis, and while I like several Tosches' books, admittedly, not sure I'll ever get to that Dino book. But this is so good, making fascinating cultural criticism, American Studies, out of stuff I could less about.

I remember Tosches' Dino book as one of the greatest biographies I ever read. Your piece does it (and Dean) full justice. Thank you.
