Industry Reviews
"SCHMIDT DELIVERED is not an eventful book. Instead, it describes the minutiae of Schmidt's quiet post-retirement life in details that can border on the absurd. [But] Schmidt's wry detachment can serve him well as he dissects even the most seemingly minor matter with a moralist's eye."
New York Times - Janet Maslin (12/14/2000)

"SCHMIDT DELIVERED is marred by occasional false notes and whole patches of unconvincing dialogue. There are some unsatisfyingly monochromatic characters as well--the most egregious example being the awful Charlotte, who one would have thought had fulfilled her awfulness quotient in the first installment of the Schmidt saga....I'm still not sure I'd want Schmidtie as a dinner companion....but Begley has made me curious enough about him to want to read more about the renegade opinions and touching glimpses of vulnerability that lurk behind his inhospitable facade."
New York Times Book Review - Daphne Merkin (12/17/2000)
