Hardback. Zustand: Fair. Brilliant . . . The dean of American comic writers showcases his varied talents mocking the public and private lives of politicians, average citizens and himself.--The Star-Ledger Calvin Trillin has committed blatant acts of funniness all over the place--in The New Yorker, in one-man off-Broadway shows, in his deadline poetry for The Nation, in comic novels, and in what USA Today called simply the funniest regular column in journalism.

The jokes kept on welling up and Mr. Trillin made a parallel reputation as a writer of funny stuff.--The Economist Wry, whip-smart, understated, and entertaining.--The Miami Herald. …
