The Big Book of Irony

The Big Book of Irony
  • Jon Winokur
  • St. Martin's Press
  • 2007
  • ★★★☆☆

Though there's very little original writing in this one — it's more collection and compilation than exploration — it was a quick, often funny read.

Perhaps a pocket-sized coffee table book on irony had to be written.
