Download or read book The Mammoth Book of Irish Humour written by Aubrey Malone and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bumper collection of Irish humour covers topics such as Absenteeism and Zoos and everything in between. It would be disappointing should such a large collection not include the best of famous Irish wits such as Oscar Wilde and George Bernard Shaw, but the emphasis is very much on contemporary Irish humour from the likes of Tommy Tiernan, Dylan Moran, Ardal O'Hanlon and Dara O'Briain, to name just a few. Lunatic, iconoclastic and, as Spike Milligan might have put it, involving 'sideways thinking', this is Irish humour at its very best.

Download or read book Rowdy Rhymes and Rec im itations written by Vincent Caprani and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2011-09-09 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For about 300 years Dubliners have been creating ballads, 'rec-im-itations' and parodies – commenting in verse form – with a mischievous disregard for both the laws of libel and the canons of poetry – on everything from social events, public affairs, the city's monuments and institutions, politics, murder cases and sporting events, to their fellow citizens and street characters. Many of the ballads, in addition to showing the Dubliner's instinct for the value of words and wit, also provide an easily accessible guide to the ordinary occurrences of life in the city and a glimpse into traditions of the past. This is the tradition in which Vincent Caprani writes. So if you want to be reminded of what happened to Gough's Statue in the 'Phaynix Park', to learn more about The Whore of Hackballscross, or if you want to be entertained by 'pomes' that are by turns funny, touching and nostalgic, this is the very book for you.

Download or read book Maeve in America written by Maeve Higgins and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “If Tina Fey and David Sedaris had a daughter, she would be Maeve Higgins.” —Glamour A startlingly hilarious essay collection about one woman’s messy path to finding her footing in New York City, from breakout comedy star and podcaster Maeve Higgins Maeve Higgins was a bestselling author and comedian in her native Ireland when, at the grand old age of thirty-one, she left the only home she’d ever known in search of something more and found herself in New York City. Together, the essays in Maeve in America create a smart, funny, and revealing portrait of a woman who aims for the stars but sometimes hits the ceiling and the inimitable city that helped make her who she is. Here are stories of not being able to afford a dress for the ball, of learning to live with yourself while you’re still figuring out how to love yourself, of the true significance of realizing what sort of shelter dog you would be. Self-aware and laugh-out-loud funny, this collection is also a fearless exploration of the awkward questions in life, such as: Is clapping too loudly at a gig a good enough reason to break up with somebody? Is it ever really possible to leave home? “Maeve Higgins is hilarious, poignant, conversational, and my favorite Irish import since U2. You’re in for a treat.” —Phoebe Robinson
