Go Blow Your Nose

Go Blow Your Nose  By  Michael Sorkin and Marguerite How

Good Condition. (Unmarked text).

by Michael Sorkin and Marguerite Howe

Since scientists disagree whether medical treatment can change the course of a cold, you might as well give in to this whimsical little book that’s subtitled “Uncommon Guide to the Common Cold.” A sampling of the questions and answers will show what this book is about: “Q. How long does a cold generally last? A. A cold lasts until the end of the week unless it occurs on the weekend, in which case it lasts until Thursday.” Or: “Q. What should I do if my nose goes on strike? A. Pick it.” You had to ask. There’s also a quiz and a crossword puzzle with “achoo” as one of the answers. Colds are so awful that this is exactly the kind of book they deserve.
