Description
In Robert Urban's 9th book he once again shows why he is often considered the king of short form comedy writing. Wisecracker is the literary equivalent of sharing a beer with your funniest friend -- the one who always has a story to tell. With a sharp wit and a gift for transforming everyday nonsense into laugh-out-loud moments, Urban weaves a series of short, comedic essays, recollections and stories that explore the absurdities of modern life, relationships, and the occasional crisis.
His humor is often irreverent and always brutally honest. Beneath the jokes, there's also a surprising amount of heart and wisdom, reminding readers not to take life too seriously, but to always appreciate the little moments of absurdity that make it worth living. Urban draws from personal experiences and absurd encounters that most people would rather forget. From disastrous dating to public faux pas, he turns every cringe-worthy moment into something you can't help but laugh at.
This book is a must-read for anyone who enjoys witty, self-deprecating humor, and awkward situations that are almost too funny to be true. Whether you're curled up on the couch or sneaking a read during your lunch break, Wisecracker promises to keep you entertained and laughing out loud
