"A perfect introduction for new fans and a worthy addition to the collections of old fans, The Best of Carlin showcases the longevity, range, and--above all--hilarity of the master. Filled with thoughts, musings, questions, lists, beliefs, curiosities, monologues, assertions, assumptions, and other delicious verbal ordeals, it is drop-dead funny tour through Carlin's mind. More than ten years after his death, Carlin's characteristically ironic takes on life's annoying universal truths remain thoughtful, fearless, and somehow more relevant than ever."--
foreword by Lewis Black ; introduction by Jerry Hamza.
"All material in this book was originally published in Brain Droppings (Hyperion, 1997), Napalm and Silly Putty (Hyperion, 2001), and When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops? (Hyperion, 2004)."--Title page verso
