I thought this was more of an autobiography, and maybe in its own strange way it was. But in reality it was just a compilation of a ton of short, paragraph length jokes kinda about a specific topic. Not really what I was hoping for, nor really interested in. A few made me chuckle out loud, but live comedy doesn’t come across that well in book form... ( ) This book is a collection of material from the routine of stand-up comedian Jerry Seinfeld. To me, it's not at all funny in print. In fact, his observations about life are trivial and sophomoric, and reveal just how limited is the author's perspective and life experience. Jerry's schtick is to make clever observations about aspects of life that we all share. He apparently thinks we all live in little apartments in New York City, shop for food at a nearby neighborhood store, and seek short- term relationships with women. His material may work in smoke-filled comedy clubs where half- drunk singles are primed to laugh, but in book form it's not a success. For hard core fans only. There was no funnier show than "Seinfeld" when the show finally found its rhythm and stride, but I've never thought Jerry's stand up material was all that original. Seeing it in writing only confirms that his strength isn't his material - these bits were covered more convincingly by Shandling and Reiser back in their hey-days. I'll take "Seinfeld" seasons 4 & 5 over any of these predictable routines. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
