    Synopsis

    A perfectly gift-able, perfectly cynical, slipcased omnibus of George Carlin's trademark irreverence -- including bonus never-before-published material

    For four decades, George Carlin has been one of America's favorite comics, known as much for his willingness to take on taboo subjects as for his absurdist wordplay. As an author, he has proved equally popular: With combined sales of more than two million copies, Carlin's three books of razor-sharp and hilarious observations have topped bestseller lists nationwide. Now, just in time for the holidays, Hyperion proudly collects all three volumes -- When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?, Napalm and Silly Putty, and Brain Droppings --- into one hilarious omnibus, a slipcased edition that also includes new material.

    George Carlin has released 18 comedy albums, won three Grammy and six Cable Ace Awards, starred in 13 solo HBO comedy specials, appeared in 10 feature films, and received the American Comedy Awards Lifetime Achievement Award. He lives in Los Angeles.

    This saves purchasing all three seperatelyby Mischief_Mayhem_Soap

    12/06/2009: George Carlin is by far the most intellectually stimulating comedian to have ever lived. His messages have spanned generations of political and pop culture humor. I personally have read the three books included in this collection but have never owned any of them. This was a perfect opportunity to own all three plus some extra passages not included in any of the original texts. It reads fast, its hard to put down and you'll love every minute of it. Unless you're easily offended, in which case, run away at full speed, preferably away from me.

    11/04/2009: George Carlin has always been one of my favorite comedians. When I saw his book, I was very excited to purchase it and be able to sit and read it and to be able to laugh aloud!!! I highly rate this book. Great Carlin material.
