South Carolina on-line humor columnist Barry Parham will be signing copies of his new collection, The Middle-Age of Aquarius (CreateSpace, paperback, $14.99), at Fiction Addiction on Saturday, September 10th, from 12-2pm.
If you're not already familiar with the work of online humor columnist Barry Parham from his previous three books, here's your chance to get to know him. To get to know the man the Chicago Tribute has called "the next Mark Twain" (no, they didn't). The guy David Ladderman, Jay Limo, and others depend on for new material (no, they don't). The acclaimed wit known to the staff of the Miami Herald as "the funniest man since Mark Twain" (actually, they never met). A man the New Yorker Times considers to be "just a bit taller than Mark Twain" (this is true because Mark Twain died). So hop on for Barry's fourth collection of looks at play, work, art, TV, cultural norms (a very short chapter, that one), ads, fads, politics, the internet, anti-social networking, and why the end of the world might be late. And yes, Straw-Heads, the ferrets are back. Includes these award-winning stories: Comfortably Dumb, Snowblind, and The Zodiac Buzz-Killer.
If you cannot make the signing, you can reserve a personalized copy of any of Mr. Parham's books by contacting Fiction Addiction in advance at 864-675-0540 or at info@fiction-addiction.com.
