"John Limon's book opens up exciting new possibilities in cultural studies. Stand-up comedy--manic, smutty, abusive, improvisatory--has up to now evaded academic critics, as if its pleasures were too volatile for examination. Limon carries off the feat--rarely achieved by analysts of humour--of taking comedy seriously without spoiling the jokes."--Maud Ellmann, University of Cambridge
