The Boys of Winter

Wilfrid Sheed. McGraw-Hill Companies, $5.95 (0pp) ISBN 978-0-07-056497-8

The assorted writers and editors who live year-round in the Hamptons are a perfect target for satire, and Sheed here ``gleefully riddles them,'' wrote PW. ``The laughs turn a little sour toward the end, in an oddly grating denouement, but until then the book is a constant fizz of delight.''
