This Is an AudioBook

By: Demetri Martin

Narrated by: Demetri Martin

From the renowned comedian, creator, star and executive producer/multiple title-holder of Comedy Central's Important Things with Demetri Martin comes a bold, original, and rectangular kind of humor book.

Demetri's first literary foray features longer-form essays and conceptual pieces (such as Protagonists' Hospital, a melodrama about the clinic doctors who treat only the flesh wounds and minor head scratches of Hollywood action heroes), as well as his trademark charts, doodles, drawings, one-liners, and lists (i.e., the world views of optimists, pessimists and contortionists), Martin's material is varied, but his unique voice and brilliant mind will keep readers in stitches from beginning to end.

Good but lacks reader experience

I've read this book and preferred reading it rather than listening to it. Demetri often doesn't put a performance spin on otherwise excellent source material. It sometimes sounds like it's being recited rather than performed.

Light and Entertaining!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This offers short humorous and mind ticklng bits, so you will not get bored. I have listened to it repeatedly and will again. I hope Demetri Martin does more - love him!!!

What other book might you compare This Is an AudioBook to and why?

Bo Burman is smilar but a bit cruder and less refined.

I really like Demetri Martin and this was decent

I can't say it was THE BEST EVER. but it was solid in the peculiar Demetri Martin way of observing and telling stories about his observations
