Screams & Whispers: 69 humor pieces rejected by The New Yorker - Paperback

by David Martin (Author)

David Martin's humor has been published in most major North American newspapers. His work has also appeared in "Newsweek" and "Smithsonian Magazine" but, alas, not in "The New Yorker." "Screams & Whispers" is a collection of 69 of Mr. Martin's humor pieces that were rejected by the "Shouts & Murmurs" department of that illustrious publication. Luckily, they all found a home elsewhere and you can enjoy them in one compact little book. The humor ranges from the sublime to the ridiculous. From the early attempts of famous writers to create advertising copy to mid-21st century marriage announcements in "The New York Times" for robot-human nuptials, "Screams & Whispers" is a fun-filled humor collection that should soon make its home on or near your favorite nightstand.
