The Specialist / by Charles (Chic) Sale by Charles Sale
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Saw Chic Sale again in a film, ‘Treasure Island’, last week and thought if I saw another of his books again, I’d nabbed it. So I did a few days ago. This tiny little thing has not much more than a transcript of a monologue. It’s a neat monologue telling of the business of outhouse written in a humourous way.
As fun as this is, I just wish there was much more to it all. though, I understand this is all Sale wanted this to be.
I understand this was a huge best seller and more came after it. I know of other little books like this one that did very well. I wonder why we see so little of this today.
Bottom line: I recommend this. 7 out of 10 points.
