Synopsis "My Brother Was An Only Child (in English)"
Classic Humor from a Comic LegendBefore Jack Douglas published his hilarious and widely popular compendium of rejoinders-The Jewish/Japanese Sex and Cookbook-he wrote the absurdly witty tome, My Brother Was an Only Child. In a time when stand-up comedy was king on radio and television, Douglas's witticisms set the tone for a form of entertainment Americans relished. Beginning in the 1930s, the Emmy-award-winning Douglas wrote for the comic greats Bob Hope, Red Skelton, George Gobel, and Jimmy Durante." On television his regular appearances on the late-night shows of Jack Paar and others set the bar for the comedians of a generation.Writing irreverently of Philadelphia, Poughkeepsie ("At the time we moved to Poughkeepsie, Ivan the Terrible was the czar"), Benjamin Franklin, his mom and dad ("My father never met John Huston. My father died when he was six years old."), Mahatma Gandhi and the infamous Camp Nokopokopokonomopke, Douglas keeps the droll observations rolling page after page. A must for aspiring comedians and all lovers of humor.This book is also available from Echo Point Books as a paperback (ISBN 1635619211).
