Bøker av Ian Frazier

More than just a travelogue, Travels in Siberia is also an account of Russia since the end of the Soviet Union and a personal reflection on the all-around amazingness of Russia, a country that still somehow manages to be funny.

A literary cavalcade of contemporary American funnymen - and funnywomen - of the page. It includes such masters of the form as Roy Blount Jr, Bruce Jay Friedman, Veronica Geng, Jack Handey, Garrison Keillor, Steve Martin, and Calvin Trillin, as well as work by comic stars like Andy Borowitz, Larry Doyle, George Saunders, and David Sedaris.

In the early 1970s, Ian Frazier left a small town in Ohio to move to a loft in lower Manhattan. This book is his account of the city over thirty years - where every block is an event and where the denizens are larger than life.
