Comic essays from the author of Farrell Covington and the Limits of Style: "There's no book wiser or half as funny as I Shudder." —David Sedaris I Shudder is a side-splittingly funny collection of essays from Paul Rudnick, one of America's preeminent humorists—a playwright, screenwriter, novelist, and regular contributor to the New Yorker. The reviews say it all: "A hilarious, often touching hodgepodge of essays about his work and his life with his pleasingly demented family." — People (4 stars) "Uproariously self-deprecating essays about being gay and Jewish in suburban New Jersey and downtown Manhattan." — The New York Times Book Review "A likable and accomplished raconteur who never loses sight of his own absurdity." — The Washington Post "Smart, dishy, and very funny." — Daily News "An acerbic and entertaining memoir." — Entertainment Weekly " I Shudder is filled with deeply funny musings and adventures that elevate Paul Rudnick to the highest level of American comedy writing. It should be noted that I would be at the highest level of American comedy writing if I had had Paul's early advantages." —Steve Martin
