About the book

The Folio Anthology of Humour brings together a wide-ranging selection of comic writing from different authors, periods and literary traditions. The collection encompasses many forms of humour, from satire and parody to absurdity, wit and comic observation. By placing different comic voices alongside one another, it demonstrates the extraordinary variety of ways writers have found to expose human foolishness and turn everyday situations into entertainment. It offers both familiar favourites and less expected pieces in a broad celebration of the written comic tradition.
