Marco Dante (and Other Fake Guys) : Lulu.com : 9780557714674 : 0557714672 : 17 Mar 2003 : Marco Dante is a cross between Robert Moses, Barry McGuire and Jack Lescoulie. But get this...he's really fake! Yes, he is the product of the mind of Sandy McKnight, comedy writer and musician extraordinaire. Imagine, a made-up character! You've gotta read this book... it's humorous! (for British readers: humourous!) Included in this collection of short stories and essays is the classic "The Steve Derry Decade", a 'what if' journey through the sixties; "endives", a philosophical rant that asks the hard questions; and other pieces that will remind you of Steve Martin, Woody Allen, and other authors of alternative absurdist comedy.
