This Is a Book

A collection of author's comic drawings that covers the world's worst comeback lines, the world's worst comeback lines, to brilliant charts and graphs ("Incidence of Lung Cancer in Dragons", "A Sad Clown/Happy Clown Venn Diagram") and a bittersweet ghost love story. Demetri Martin is a Very Important Award-Winning Comedian, so spends a lot of his time time travelling around, with a notebook, filling it with jokes and incredibly long palindromes (over 500-words long, in fact). The very best of those are collected here, from his acclaimed comic drawings and the world's worst comeback lines, to brilliant charts and graphs (Incidence of Lung Cancer in Dragons, a Sad Clown/Happy Clown venn diagram) and a bittersweet ghost love story. Add in hilarious pieces on The Deleted Scene from A Christmas Carol, A Cappella Group Freak Accidents and Frustrating Uses of Etc., and This is a Book you'll never want to put down.
