Steve Martin is a man of many talents, from comedian to writer --- and now, novelist. His book, SHOPGIRL, is a poignant tale of a woman lost in her life. Mirabelle toils away in the glove department of Neiman's and daydreams about the art she has not created and the love she has always been seeking. Martin writes delicately and perceptively about what happens to this rather ordinary young woman when she steps out from behind the counter.
