A perfectly gift-able, perfectly cynical, slipcased omnibus of George Carlin’s trademark irreverence–including bonus never-before-published material.

For four decades, George Carlin has been one of America’s favorite comics, known as much for his willingness to take on taboo subjects as for his absurdist wordplay. As an author, he has proved equally popular: With combined sales of more than two million copies, Carlin’s three books of razor-sharp and hilarious observations have topped bestseller lists nationwide.

Now, just in time for the holidays, Hyperion proudly collects all three volumes — When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?, Napalm and Silly Putty, and Brain Droppings — into one hilarious omnibus, a slipcased edition that also includes new material.

About the Author

George Carlin (1937-2008), a celebrated stand-up comedian, actor, social critic and author, was best known for his irreverent, dark comedy and reflections on American society. Carlin was once dubbed “the dean of counterculture comedians” and has been regarded as one of the most influential stand-up comics of his time. He filmed his first HBO special in 1977 and appeared on “The Tonight Show” over 130 times. The documentary will feature a unique mix of conversations with Carlin’s family and friends, material from his stand-up specials, TV appearances and personal archive.

Lewis Black is the hugely popular and New York Times bestselling author, stand-up comedian, actor, and playwright.

He’s won a Grammy, an Emmy, and an American Comedy Award. Born near Washington, D.C., Black graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and has a master’s degree from the Yale School of Drama.
