Hoboken Fish and Chicago Whistle
A favorite book of mine is Daniel Pinkwater's collection of radio commentaries, Hoboken Fish and Chicago Whistle. Here's a lengthy excerpt. Each is too short to excerpt further without doing violence to it, so I'm not doing so.
That must be a combo of "Fish Whistle" and "Chicago Days, Hoboken Nights", two previously released collections of his radio commentaries. Love those books. I highly recommend anything by Pinkwater, even (or especially) the children's literature. "Borgel is one of my favorites.
