Much earlier this month openly gay superstar humorist David Rakoff won the Thurber Prize for his terrific third collection of smart, funny essays, Half Empty
[[Kindle]]. Entertainment Weekly wrote, “Combining journalistic tenacity, literary smarts, and a talent for gut-busting one-liners . . . His blend of withering wit and self-effacing humor makes these essays soar.”
If you missed them before, now's the time to get his other works, Don't Get Too Comfortable and Fraud.
The Thurber Prize has been awarded ten times previously, including to David Sedaris, Jon Stewart, Joe Keenan, The Onion, and twice to Ian Frazier.
Total agreement!
