The traditional Aussie jokes told in pubs and cabs now compete with global jokes. It's Dad 'n' Dave versus Monica Lewinsky.
Phillip Adams Libri
Questo autore fonde magistralmente l'arguzia satirica con una profonda visione umanistica del mondo. Il suo lavoro si addentra spesso nella critica sociale, esplorando questioni etiche da una prospettiva non convenzionale. Con una spiccata sensibilità di sinistra e una prospettiva atea, offre una lente unica e provocatoria attraverso cui osservare la natura umana e le strutture sociali.
A book of hundreds of politically incorrect jokes, gleaned from the Internet.
The Penguin Book of More Australian Jokes
- 510pagine

This book is to the joke what a telephone directory is to the phone number. No taxi has been left unturned, no dunny wall unread, no pub unvisited in rounding up these funnies. The result is a naughtier, even more notorious volume than the bestselling Penguin Book of Australian Jokes. Of course, you should be reading serious fiction or uplifting works of theology - but if you don't mind feeling thoroughly ashamed of yourself, this is the book for you.
