Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Martin Mull's Life Sentences is a characteristically clever, deftly funny, and acutely heartfelt collection of stories from one of America's most beloved and original comedians, actors, and artists.Mull introduces us to a perky real estate agent who becomes an ailing bachelor's best friend; a father and son who battle over a phone and their newly discovered political difference; and an unlikely rockstar whose fall comes as quickly and unexpectedly as his rise to fame. A discontented art teacher and middling painter finds inspiration in the striking face of a petty criminal who sets him on the path to fleeting success. With a short time to live, and a lot of living to do, a health nut goes on a hedonistic tearhe eats, he drinks, he lives, but he can't escape his fate.Drawing from the well of his own wide-ranging experiences and from life's most persistent contradictions, Mull has written a book that is at once clear-eyed and optimistic. Life Sentences is an homage to that part of ourselves that never stops asking questions, that part of ourselves that never grows old (even as we do). With his famously sharp wit and keen eye, Mull offers a portrait of the human spirit in its most vulnerable form. In a voice that is droll, compassionate, and unmistakably his own, Martin Mull's stories introduce us to a cast of complex characters whoin turnintroduce us to deeper, more honest versions of ourselves. This is literature that feels like talking to a close (and hilarious) friend. It's creative genius at its most intimate.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the spirit of our founding father, Mark Twain, County Highway is honoring the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence by gathering a raft of some of America's finest essayists, humorists, fiction writers, and other prose stylists and wise-asses to remind us of what makes America great. The answers, some deadpan, and others only mildly tongue-in-cheek, include lawn-mowers, gas grills, Hanna-Barbera cartoons, cowboy boots, catcher's mitts, light-bulbs, hairspray, chicken-wire fencing, and 242 other entries in what is sure to be the most amusing and least-tiresome tribute to a nation that occasionally commemorates the past by staging gaudy parades or engaging in bouts of solemn introspection but thrives most of the time on forgetting its history and making new stuff.Given the bitter political divisions that render Americans capable of agreeing on anything of importance, we don't claim to list the "greatest" American things, nor do we rank them in any order besides the alphabetical. Rather, the greatness of each entry will speak for itself, and for the nation that we have built together by solving problems that needed solving, through flashes of off-kilter genius and intuition, and by kidding around.CONTRIBUTORS:Tony Badran, Ryan Baesemann, Drew Bratcher, Kaitlan Bui, Cyrus Coron, J.D.
