About this product
Product Information
Viva Laughter Viva Laughter is a work of delicious satire, concocted with a dash of Mark Twain, a tablespoon of Jonathan Swift, a cupful of O. Henry and a gallon of Mel Brooks. The sweet and savory result is 37 tales on every subject under the sun, but all sharing a hearty helping of humor. Think of this tasty collection as a literary snack box to be enjoyed, in servings big and small, whenever the craving for something quick and delectable stirs the mind. With Viva Laughter author and humorist Patrick Shannon dishes up no-holds-barred comedy in stories that take aim squarely at the pompous and misguided. "The Graffito" is a wild quest tale inspired by a verse of obscenity scribbled in a public toilet. An inept, dyslexic intelligence agent embarks on a risky mission in "A Tissue of Lies," while "A Hunting We Will Go" tells the tale of a squeamish caveman with a flair for interior decorating.
