Timing is everything

June 9th, 2004

So I get today my used copy of The Devil’s Candy, a book about the massive failure of The Bonfire of the Vanities as a movie, printed in 1992.

The Kirkus Reviews blurb on the back reads:

Like watching a World Trade Center tower topple onto Wall Street

I bet whomever wrote that is now pretty damned glad he didn’t use as fun as instead of like.

    “The most talked-about Book in town” – The New York Times.

    Timing… timing. A few years further ahead and it definitely would have been the talk of the town XD
