Book by Colbert Stephen

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

An unrelenting fighter for the soul of America, Stephen Colbert offers up truthiness, untold insight, and the only correct opinions in America in his hilarious political satire book based on the hit series, The Colbert Report.
Congratulations -- just by looking at this webpage, you became 25% more patriotic.
From Stephen Colbert, the former host of television's highest-rated punditry show The Colbert Report, comes a book to fill all twenty-four hours of your day. I Am America (And So Can You!) contains all of the opinions that Stephen didn't have time to shoehorn into his nightly broadcast.
Dictated directly into a microcassette recorder over a three-day weekend, this book contains Stephen's most deeply held knee-jerk beliefs on:

• The American Family
• Race
• Religion
• Sex
• Sports
• and many more topics, conveniently arranged in chapter form.

Always controversial and outspoken, Stephen addresses why Hollywood is destroying America by inches, why evolution is a fraud, and why the elderly should be harnessed to millstones.
You may not agree with everything Stephen says, but with this book, at the very least, you'll understand that your differing opinion is wrong.

Revue de presse :

"The sharp-elbowed Mr Colbert will deservedly work his way toward the top of best-seller lists... If "I Am America (And So Can You!)" had nothing but its title, its Colbert cover portrait and 230 blank pages instead of printed ones, it would make a cherished keepsake just the same" (New York Times)

"Exactly how Colbert manages to be so funny, and so in character, for the 228 pages of this book is a mystery none of us will solve. But there's great pleasure in trying" (People Magazine)

"As on the "Report," the deadpan Colbert here assumes laughably irrational stands on just about everything... His take on the clueless field reporter continues to set the standard for news parody" (Bookpage)

"Hilarious... razor-sharp... this jam-packed text is scathing and mean, dark and joyful, brilliant and idiotic, and above all else, wildly, wildly funny" (New York Post)

"An unholy hybrid that's part civics, part autobiography, part messianic recruitment tract" (Entertainment Weekly)
