Description
Author: Editors of Playboy
Publisher: Playboy Press, Chicago, Illinois
Condition: Softcover, yellowed pages, interior clean
This generous selection of Playboy humor is easily the most consistently funny book you can find anywhere today. Between these covers you'll find the hilarious work of the most gifted contemporary comedic talents: Dan Greenburg, Woody Allen, Art Buchwald, Richard Armour, Allan Sherman, Jean Shepherd, Roger Price, Shepherd Mead, P. G. Wodehouse, Ray Russell, Harvey Kurtzman and many more.
The subject matter ranges from Chinese Communists to British fox hunting, from French guidebooks to American sex manuals, from boys' books to campy film musicals to Lady Chatterly's Lover. In this bracing book, the comic spirit takes the shape of astringent stories, pungent playlets, acerbic articles; and the form of lampoon, parody, pasquinade, burlesque--all the forms, in fact, of humor and satire, and all at their most risible best.
