Sudden Glory by Barry Sanders

In this wonderful exploration of the meaning of laughter, Barry Sanders queries its uses from the ancient Hebrews to Lenny Bruce, turning up evidence of its age-old power to subvert authority and give voice to the voiceless.
Barry Sanders has received two Pulitzer Prize nominations for his works A Is for Ox and Alienable Rights, which he co-authored with Francis Adams. Recipient of a Fulbright Senior Scholar Grant, Sanders retired in 2005 from his post as professor of History of Ideas and English at Pitzer College in Claremont, California.
