I have a hardcover of the book somewhere, but I admit I have never read it. I love the movie. Have you ever heard "Help Me Make It Through The Night" the same way since seeing the film?

Have you ever heard “Help Me Make It Through The Night” the same way since seeing the film?

He later hired Gardner. That's about as terse as novel as you'll ever read. I think I prefer the movie.
