"How Paul Robeson Saved My Life is Carl Reiner's funniest book. Maybe it's because it's his shortest book. I love short, funny books." --Neil Simon

Carl Reiner has been making people laugh since the days of The Dick Van Dyke Show. His showbiz bits with Mel Brooks about the 2000 Year Old Man have become the stuff of comedy legend. Jerry Seinfeld, Alan Alda, Neil Simon, Steve Allen, and Richard Lewis were all bowled over by the comic genius of The 2000 Year Old Man in the Year 2000 : The Book. Now, in his wonderful new book, Carl Reiner shows off the talent and humor that have made him a comedic superstar.

Filled with rich, multidimensional tales, this collection of short stories from one of America's truly great comedic minds is at once poignant, nostalgic, and laugh-out-loud funny. How Paul Robeson Saved My Life. the story of Reiner's experiences in the army during World War II, is a darkly funny look at racism. Lance and Gwendolyn is a modern-day fairy tale with some surprising twists. Dial 411 for Legal Smut is a tongue-in-cheek look at phone sex. Whatever topic he tackles, Reiner always manages to capture the highs and lows, the follies and foibles of everyday life.

Sweet, wry and whimsical, How Paul Robeson Saved My Life and Other Mostly Happy Stories is a charming collection that will leave you laughing in delight.
