Ni! Peng! Nee-wom! Applause Theatre & Cinema Books revered and
august publisher of weighty tomes on all things histrionic is proud
to present EMonty Python FAQ: All That's Left to Know About Spam
Grails Spam Nudging Bruces and SpamE the only 127% unauthorized
guide to the greatest comedy troupe to ever feature Graham Chapman
John Cleese Terry Gilliam Eric Idle Terry Jones and Michael Palin
to what is doubtlessly an astute and discerning global audience!
Written in Applause's popular FAQ format this behemoth pack a broad
range of historical trivia trivial history illicit paraphernalia
and sophomoric overeducation into a tastefully apportioned ranged
of eminently readable silly-walk-accessible chapters sure to
delight Python newcomers and veterans alike.THRather than offering
narrow analyses of the quintet's work EMonty Python FAQE ganders at
the big picture tracing the Pythons across space time and media
format. This noble quest for meaning leaves no turn unstoned from
the Pythons' time immersed in the sketch comedy scene they grew out
of to their boundary-breaking undefinable anarchic new style from
their comedic influences to biographical info on each of the
individual Pythons (including an examination of their lives and
work post-Python) from the book's front cover to its reverse and
from the beginning of this sentence to its mawkish and merciful
end. Much like the troupe itself the writers of EMonty Python FAQE
stuff their work with allusions to canonical literature and
philosophy but never forgot that sometimes it's just as funny to
see somebody get slapped in the face with a fish. DUCK!THOther
selling points include:THU 60% more fish-slapping than any other
Monty Python book on or slightly underneath the market!THU No joke
names but plenty of bad Latin!THU In-depth cogent and rapier-witted
insights (not to mention naughty limericks and highly questionable
assertions)!THU Not one not two but THREE authors: Chris Barsanti
Jeff Massey Brian Cogan!THU Candid commentary ... nudge nudge wink
wink know what we mean?
