"Carol Leifer, the prolific comedian and television writer (S.N.L., Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Hacks, etc.), has many skills. One, perhaps unsurprisingly, is delivering funny speeches, a gift for which she's now giving back, with a book titled How to Write a Funny Speech." -- The New Yorker, "An inspired piece of service journalism by the comedians Carol Leifer and Rick Mitchell.... Takes the reader by the hand, offering reassuring words and simple, direct and practical advice.... The most interesting pages reprint speeches by the authors with their notes in the margins. It's like eavesdropping on smart comedians talking shop." -- The New York Times

- c***t (921)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThe book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.
