The Comedian As Confidence Man: Studies in Irony Fatigue - Humor in Life and Letters Series
Will Kaufman
In this lively and fascinating analysis of humourists and their work, Will Kaufman breaks new ground with his irony fatigue theory. The Comedian as Confidence Man examines the humorist's internal conflict between the social critic who demands to be taken seriously and the comedian who never can be: the irony fatigue condition.
