Combine this title with 1978's Non-Being and Somethingness, and you've got the core tenets of the famed, horn-rimmed neurotic. Writer/cartoonist Stuart Hample's Inside Woody Allen — a comic series inked during the auteur's golden years in the late '70s — supplies the book's cerebral and hilarious contents. Besides finely drawn panels that compress an entire worldview, Hample's step-by-step process is also laid bare with pencil roughs, corrections, marginal notes, and even correspondence. Tonight, Hample sits down with former talk-show host and ace converser Dick Cavett.
