Can someone recommend me something highly amusing, yet at the same time satirical, witty, hilarious, though never stoops to something you call downright stupid, laden with conversations and dialogs, or perhaps with lots and lots of irony?
It’s tiring reading serious stuff. Too much philosophy and ideas and concepts to grasp all at once.I need a good laugh, one of these days.
Expand. I’m thinking of adding Chuck Palahniuk on the list but dunno where to start. On the other hand, I’d probably pick Herman Hesse’s stuff before moving on to Siddartha next month. Also there’s Irvine Welsh waiting to be read.
Ah. Help me. Local books would be fine. I’m waiting someone to buy me Tapai by Hishammudin Rais. Sebab ada reference kepada Bob Harris. and some other stuff. I just don’t have the money to buy them books no more.
Tolong.

I've 3 of palahniuk's if you wanna borrow. \”highly amusing, yet at the same time satirical, witty, hilarious, though never stoops to something you call downright stupid, laden with conversations and dialogs, or perhaps with lots and lots of irony?\”Now that's difficult. But, hm, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's nest is pretty delightful. I love it. Bought it last weekend. And uh, The Dice Man by Luke Rhineheart. This book…uh, you gotta read it. It's different. The one that I thought of chucking but I kinda like it a lot.Oh yeah, I've Kafka's The Metamorphosis too.

I might have a book if you fancy local wit and irony. It's the book I read during the debate clinic tuh.
