Please Don't Eat the Daisies

This collection of essays observes the perils of motherhood, wifehood, selfhood, and other assorted challenges. Since its publication in 1957, it has sold millions of copies and has been adapted into a Broadway play, a film, a TV series, and now an audiobook. Jean Kerr's parodies of the cliched 1950s prescription for glamorous or maternal feminine behavior still resonate today as we enter the twenty-first century. A #1 New York Times bestseller.

It Was a Dark and Stormy Night: The Best (?) from the Bulwer-Lytton Contest: 101 Funniest Opening Se

Little did the obscure novelist Edward Bulwer-Lytton know in 1830 when he penned that most relished, imitated, and lampooned opening sentence in English literature, 'It was a dark and stormy night...' that his words would inspire countless aspiring writers struggling incessantly like boats against the current to emulate his unparalleled style and that his name would grace 'The Bulwer-Lytton Contest' honoring his most successful followers. Get it? Abounding in shameless sentences, this audio rendition of the original contest is a hilarious-even perversely instructive-collection of skilled, inept writing.

Mark Twain's Library of Humor

Master wit Mark Twain selected these twenty-seven stories himself by fifteen of his favorite nineteenth century authors. The order follows that which Twain placed them in in the original anthology, published in 1888. He indulged his comic fancy rather than making a textbook in which all themes or authors are placed together, saying that "This way, you will have to peruse the whole thing before discovering that one of your favorites is not included." However, it is no joke that these are the authors represented: Charles Dudley Warner, Thomas Bailey Aldrich, Eugene Field, William D. Howells, James M. Bailey, Joel Chandler Harris, Katherine Kent Child Walker, Robert J. Burdette, Sam Davis, Artemus Ward, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Francis Lee Pratt, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Frederick W. Cozzens, and Twain himself.
