Publisher Description
Only Bill Maher, the star of Comedy Central's Politically Incorrect and a regular guest on The Tonight Show, could have written True Story...so he did. The place: New York. The time: the early 1980s. The scene: the red-hot comedy clubs, very late at night. The cast: five would-be stand-up comics, their egos, and their girls. The result: a downright hilarious novel about trying to be funny for fame, fortune, and fornication. This is Bill Maher's report from the front, a stageside table at the birth of the comedy boom. You'll laugh in all the right places.
Customer Reviews
Funny, Fascinating, and flat out Maher
This is worth every penny. You'll think about this book at least once a week, there's just all these applications to daily life. For those who have already heard this, "they want to see ya sweat."
"Because I'd Hate To Think We Were Having Fun For Free"
Comical and classic, everyone has a way to relate to this book in some way or another, even if you really don't want to. It is completely worth it to buy this book, because once you hear it, you'll be sure to listen to it over again.
