No, we’re not being sarcastic; October actually is Sarcasm Month.
For those who enjoy sarcasm and other forms of wit, Best Editorial Cartoons of the Year: 2009 Edition, edited by Charles Brooks, will elicit many laughs. With 165 cartoonists (including both liberals and conservatives) contributing more than four hundred cartoons about the events of 2008, this expansive collection is sure to be amusing to readers of any political stripe.
Fans of acerbic humor will love The Beautiful People and Other Aggravations, by Rose Madeline Mula. Rife with rants and nostalgia on aging, this collection of essays documents such hilarious moments as Rose holding up a sign that reads “Will Work for Botox.” Witty and wry, this is a perfect book for Sarcasm Month.
