    Sol Weinstein's "Loxfinger" is a very funny parody of the novels of Ian Fleming. Some, elsewhere on the Internet, suggest the book has dated. Of course it has. Everything does. But that lends it a certain period charm. Sol Weinstein was a prolific gag writer for various comics and this novel stands as tribute to the time he spent in the Catskill Mountains("the Hebrew Himalayas", as he puts it). There are good jokes, corny jokes, astute jokes and even some surreal jokes. And, by God, there's ethnic humour aplenty. It even gains a certain comic-apocalyptic tone towards the end. It is utter nonsense and fun and I recommend it unreservedly. For anyone interested in the culture of the Catskill Mountain resorts I might even go so far as to call it must-reading. Is it 'Literature?' Of course not. But if you need a laugh, this holds up pretty well over the years, nay, decades....Greg Cameron, Surrey, B.C., Canada
