Beg the Question

by Bob Fingerman

Bob Fingerman's Beg the Question tells the story of Rob and Sylvia, two twenty-somethings navigating the labyrinth of New York City life. Imagine a cross between Seinfeld and Caligula, set in Manhattan, and you'll have an idea of Fingerman's caustic wit. Beg the Question follows Rob & Sylvia's relationship through all of its ups-and-downs; from courtship to marriage, rentals to real estate salesmen, public sex to unwanted pregnancies, and everything in between. Performance art, extended families, the comic book industry and Screw magazine are just a few of the other topics subjected to Fingerman's satirical microscope. Minimum Wage was a breakthrough success for Fingerman in the '90s, and this volume collects the entire run — completely retouched, with added gray tones — and almost 40 pages of never-before-published material. Featuring an introduction by noted novelist and television writer Jerry Stahl.
