“If you love books enough, books will love you back.” –Jo Walton

Synopsis

If you listen on the street corners, in the cafes, at the kitchen tables of America, you'll hear people telling funny stories and jokes. Hometown humor helps pull us through. In this book, Loyal Jones and Billy Edd Wheeler have gathered the best of America's hometown humor. This oral tradition, says Loyal, |ties us to the entire human enterprise, with all of its disappointments, surprises, and joys.| There's a whole lot more to it than funny stories, he says. Telling them is a way to relate to each other, to enjoy and appreciate each other in an age of increasing detachment.
