Rich Tosches, humour columnist for the Colorado Springs Gazette, knows something about the absurdities that turn otherwise normal human beings into punchlines when they obsess on fly-fishing. In Zipping My Fly, he guides us around his own quirky angling universe--from New England to New Zealand--landing observations on fishing in solitude, the hubbub of competitive tournaments, friendships, flies, monster trout, and why a week at a lodge in Alaska can cost anywhere from $5000 to $1.5 million depending on whether or not you take Ivana Trump with you. Part memoir, part essay, part travelogue, part fusillade of one-liners, Zipping My Fly (how he decided on the title is a tale in itself) is, in the end, a creel crammed with catches of varying taste, some delicious, others hard to swallow. --Jeff Silverman
