Summary: LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDORED THING?????
Review: Well known to countless fans of television's The Sopranos as Bobby "Bacala" Baccilieri, Steven Schirripa turned to the world of books and penned "A Goomba's Guide To Life," a top seller not only for Sopranos aficionados but others who enjoy smiles mixed with neighborhood sagacity.Now, Mr. Schirripa follows with "The Goomba's Book Of Love," read by the only voice to share this wisdom - Mr. Schirripa himself. Love in the goomba lexicon refers not only to the attraction between male and female but his undying love for his mother and her pasta sauce, deeply felt affection for his children, and his car (he cautions that no one better be caught eating in it). The goomba, it seems, is a veritable wellspring of love - for his neighborhood, his friends, his extended family and, of course, broads. The criteria for a real goomba broad? "She'd go to the chair for me." For the uninitiated, the dictionary defines a goomba, also "goombah" as the senior member of a criminal gang. Also, for the uninitiated, "The Goomba's Book Of Love" is pure entertainment. If you want sex tips, consult Dr. Ruth. If you want laughter and good humor, listen to this. - Gail Cooke

Summary: STEVEN SCHIRRIPA -- THE GODFATHER OF LOVE
Review: What do you get when you cross Shakespeare, Mario Puzo, and Dr. Ruth? The answer -- the greatest literary master on modern day romance, Steven Schirripa. This book should be REQUIRED reading for anyone who's still searching for true love. Whether you're a college student, a single mother or a criminal defendant who's been indicted under the RICO statute, Schirripa's dating advice is inspirational and hilarious. Not since James Joyce has an author written two masterpieces back to back. With "The Goomba's Book of Love", Schirripa takes his place along with Maya Angelou as a friggin' genius.
