      About This Book

       Recipient of a Readers' Favorite Silver Medal and a Reader Views Second Place award.
      Viva Laughter! is a work of delicious satire, concocted with a dash of Mark Twain, a tablespoon of Jonathan Swift, a cupful of O. Henry and a gallon of Mel Brooks. The sweet and savory result is 37 tales on every subject under the sun, but all sharing a hearty helping of humor. Think of this tasty collection as a literary snack box to be enjoyed, in servings big and small, whenever the craving for something quick and delectable stirs the mind.

       With Viva Laughter      ! author and humorist Patrick Shannon dishes up no-holds-barred comedy in stories that take aim squarely at the pompous and misguided.  For example, an inept, dyslexic intelligence agent embarks on a risky and preposterous mission in "A Tissue of Lies."  "A Hunting We Will Go" tells the tale of a squeamish caveman with a flair for interior decorating.   And "Passing Time In Montana" allows you to eavesdrop on the two biggest liars you ever met.
