Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
The first book of prose published by either James Thurber or E. B. White, Is Sex Necessary? combines the humor and genius of both authors to examine those great mysteries of life -- romance, love, and marriage. A masterpiece of drollery, this 75th Anniversary Edition stands the test of time with its sidesplitting spoof of men, women, and psychologists; more than fifty funny illustrations by Thurber; and a new foreword by John Updike.
Review:
"If this book isn't a minor classic--and one uses the term 'minor' only because it is gorgeously funny and not quite ponderous enough to become major--well, one doesn't know what book is. Let's compromise and just call it classic."
Will Cuppy, New York Herald Tribune Book Review, 12/08/1929
Review:"The danger of entrapment in reality (e.g., women) is a theme common to both writers, both of them nervous, wary men who at this tender point in their lives could not foresee their future renown....Seldom has a book with 'sex' in the title had so little good to say about it....IS SEX NECESSARY?, breezy and slight and overextended as it is, has never been out of print; it stands as a rare conjunction of singular talents....Its jests case shadows; melancholy and anxiety underlie its high spirits."
John Updike, New York Review of Books, 11/18/2004
