Funnymen: A Novel ReviewI picked up this book because of the title and it really turned out to be full of funnymen (and women). I don't remember the last time a book made me laugh out loud the way this one did. Also, this book is set up in a really interesting way. Instead of long descriptions about this or that like in other novels, the entire story is only told by many many speaker/characters. They each have very distinctive ways of speaking, so after a while you can really imagine them speaking. And many of them are comedians, so what they say is really funny. This set up really keeps the action rolling. The effect is like watching a very funny episode of Behind the Music or something. I thought this was a really unique and brilliant way to set up a book.
Also, Funnymen is set during the classic era of American entertainment: the big band and vaudeville scene on down to the cocktail lounge scene and the Rat Pack. I liked this aspect the best. Lots of the characters are modeled after the classic stars of that time that everyone now treats like saints (like Sinatra and Dean Martin) but you figure were always living fast and loose. In this book, you get to go behind the scenes and see the wild times they had (well, sort of, since this is a work of fiction) and it's really really funny. In all, this book was fun, lighthearted and very entertaining to read. I really enjoyed it and recommend it.Funnymen: A Novel Overview
