Brilliant . . . The dean of American comic writers showcases his varied talents mocking the public and private lives of politicians, average citizens and himself.The StarLedgerCalvin Trillin has committed blatant acts of funniness all over the placein The New Yorker, in oneman offBroadway shows, in his deadline poetry for The Nation, in comic novels, and in what USA Today called simply the funniest regular column in journalism. Now Trillin selects the best of his funny stuff and organizes it into topics like high finance (My longterm investment strategy has been criticized as being entirely too dependent on Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes) and the literary life (The average shelf life of a book is somewhere between milk and yogurt). He addresses the horrors of witnessing a voodoo economics ceremony and the mystery of how his mother managed for thirty years to feed her family nothing but leftovers (We have a team of anthropologists in there now looking for the original meal). He even skewers deserving political figures in poetry. In this, the definitive collection of his humor, Calvin Trillin is prescient, insightful, and invariably hilarious.A literary treasure . . . There is only one Calvin Trillin, and if he didnt exist we would have to invent him.The Washington TimesFunny is to Trillin what drinking is to Uncle Jed in Annie Get Your Gunits what he does naturlly. Hes also a lot more than funny. Quite Enough of Calvin Trillin is the twentyeighth book hes published over not far short of a halfcentury, and their range of subjects is remarkable.Jonathan Yardley, The Washington PostTrillin made his reputation over four decades as the author of U.S. Journal in the New Yorker [but he] is incapable of resisting the temptation of comedy. The jokes kept on welling up and Mr. Trillin made a parallel reputation as a writer of funny stuff.The EconomistWry, whipsmart, understated, and entertaining.The Miami Herald
