Bloom County: Book selection

Description

Opus is looking for a book, and he asks for assistance. "I'm...looking for a book. One that'll lay it all out for a fellow about just what exactly men and women expect of each other these days."

The saleswoman suggests, "How about "Men Who Hate Women And The Women Who Love Them"?"

"Don't think so."

""Women Who Love Men And The Men Who Hate The Men Who The Women Are Loving If It Isn't Them"?"

"Uh, no."

""Men Who Love Sheep And The Women Who Won't Wear Wool"?"

"Nope. Nope. Nope. I'm sorry. I'll know it when I hear it. That's not it."

""Tighter Buns In 30 Days"?"

"That's it." Opus holds a hand out for the book.

I have yet to find an official Bloom County/Outland site on the Internet.

Comments

I believe the setting is actually a bookstore. The woman is wearing a nametag and the counter she initially is standing behind says, "BOOKS BOOKS BOOKS WE GOT BOOKS BOOKS."

But it could have been set in a library!
