Dick Martin’s lawless imagination consumes language at an alarming rate, seemingly heedless of conserving a literary future, and leaving in its wake reality-induced characters like drugs for addicts. ('Come on, let’s get unreal.') Chapter & Verse is addicting, like good reading. The crowd of characters could describe your section for a night game at Fenway: Beau Smith and Zygote, Pauline Silvernail and Marty Schnitzel, Penelope Dee Slimwhall and Dusty Figure-Head.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...
