The Best of Contemporary Women's Humor is an anthology with a twist: humorous short stories, poetry, songs, and cartoons--all from the pens of women, and all donated to benefit charities. It will entertain readers, sustain them, and provide hours of reading pleasure. The gems here treat topics such as politics, relationships, parents, hair, dieting, and aging with wry irreverence. It features humor from some of the most well-known women writers today: Wendy Wasserstein, Delia Ephron, Anna Quindlen, Kathy Najimy, Gloria Steinem, Christine Lavin, and many others. Inside cover illustration and chapter openers by Flash Rosenberg. And all this funny business is for three good causes: The royalties and a percentage of the proceeds will be donated to The American Foundation for AIDS Research (AmFAR), the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, and the National Alliance of Breast Cancer Organizations (NABCO).
