Sophisticated Pea(ai)rs
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book of witty, imaginate art photographs is the funniest and most ironic commentary on American high and popular culture I have encountered. The short and sensuous introduction sets the theme and the images carry it out with an amazing consistency and economy of means. There is nothing careless about these photos of pears/pairs from the shopping bag bachgrounds to the kitchen utensil accessories. No better (and less expensive) gift for friends who share your sense of fun and irony.
I laughed my pear-shaped butt off!

I found "Famous Pairs" to be witty, irreverent and thought provoking. And just plain funny. This would make a fine gift, too. (...)
Funny, witty and inspired.

Funny, witty and inspired. The best humor book ever - and you don't even have to know how to read. I dare you not to smile as you turn the pages. But a warning: this book will make you hungry.

I was looking for something to give as favors for a wedding party and found this wonderful gem of a book. It's hillarious and loveable and so stylish. I think it's just right for a hostess gift and small "thank you". Wonderful wit and artful photos make this a perfect choice for holiday presents. Don't miss this one, it's a winner!
