Overview

The brilliantly funny New York Times bestseller from beloved actor and comedian Steven Martin.

"The funniest book I've ever read." —Neil Simon, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright


Steve Martin's talent has always defied definition: a seasoned actor, a razor-sharp screenwriter, an acclaimed playwright, and, of course, the ingenious comedian who turned King Tut into a national craze. In this widely praised collection of humorous riffs, Martin shows he is a master of the written word.

From a re-imagining of the Schroedinger's Cat conundrum to a wild meditation on who Lolita would be at age fifty to a skit entitled "I Love Loosely", in which Lucy and Ricky Ricardo play the parts of Hillary and President Clinton, this collection by comic genius Steve Martin—some pieces of which have appeared in The New Yorker—is both hilariously funny and intelligent in its skewering of the topic at hand.
