Jon calls this "a work of genius"--and I had to pay him almost nothing for the blurb. More mystery and mayhem in the Ivy League, mixing my world with real history to create something entertaining.


I've combed my archives to create this collection of my magazine humor. From The Yale Record to The New Yorker, the best of the pre-Barry years is in here.


My first non-parodic novel is now available! It's school like it ought to be: loud, eventful, and full of swearing!


I'm probably going to Hell for this C.S. Lewis spoof.


The ultimate Harry Potter parody. Three novels, 25 foreign editions, over a million copies sold--it's too much to list here, but you can read excerpts and buy the books at Barrytrotter.com!

Lawrence of Arabia

I had the great good fortune to watch the movie "Lawrence of Arabia" in 70mm at the Aero Theater last night. I decided to do it on a whim, and the theater was packed, but it was really a wonderful experience. It reminded me of other times, mostly as a boy, when a movie has so filled my head that for a few hours it has become as powerful as reality. Those are sweet memories, and now I have another.

If you haven't seen it, you should, preferably in a theater, and preferably in 70mm. I just read Roger Ebert's review/appreciation, which does far more justice to the picture than I ever could.
