Oh Well You Know How Women Are - Isn't That Just Like a Man

The novel is a two in one satirical look at the differences between men and women. In 'Oh Well You Know How Women Are' author Irvin S. Gobbs starts off with a humorous look at the traits that characterize women, not least among them their desire for 'shopping' at stores rather than plain buying. In 'Isn't That Just like a Man' author Mary Roberts Rinehart hits back with an equally comical take on men. She argues that men need more looking after and that, «if someone didn't turn his old pajamas into scrub rags and silver cloths, he would go on wearing their ragged skeletons long after the flesh had departed hence.»
