Clam Chowder, Matt LehmanGenre: Non-Fiction, Satire
Recommended by: Gary Davis, 07/24/2005
The best thing about Clam Chowder is it’s spirited energy. I realized about a third of the way through this book that I had this smile on my face, like I was listening to some stand-up comedy routine. Although Matt is really trying to help his fellow professional Servers survive, his dialogue can help all of us with tough gigs.
