Soda Through My Nose: The Great Character Comedians (Jim Carrey, Stephen Colbert, Sasha Baron Cohen, Sarah Silverman, Andy Kaufman, and More)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. While it's true that comedy is defined differently from person to person and culture to culture, comedy's intent is to amuse and get the laugh. Comedy can take the form of social or political satire, slapstick, irony, parody, black comedy and many other forms. Comedy is an ever-evolving art that mutates with the whims of the cultural funny bone.

This book explores character-based comedy, and the comedians who have mastered the style. In character comedy the comedian creates a character and stays in character through the comedy act. Included are Jim Carrey, Stephen Colbert, Sasah Baron Cohen, Sarah Silverman, Andy Kaufman, and many more.
