I marked the day in my adolescent diary with a single blank page; The mantle of queer migrant compelled me to keep going to go further; I never came out to my parents.

Title: Sacred Art of Joking

Author: James Cary

Narrator: James Cary

Format: Unabridged

Length: 04:53:25

Language: English

Release date: 08-01-19

Publisher: W.F. Howes

Genres: General Comedy

Summary:

'Having worked for many years at the coalface of comedy, sorting the dross from the combustible, James Cary is uniquely qualified to write this book.' Milton Jones, comedian and panellist on BBC2's Mock the Week

Every few weeks a politician, pundit or soap star causes a media storm by making a gaffe or tweeting a joke that some people do not find funny. Comedy is very hard to get right and yet we think it's important to have a sense of humour and not take yourself too seriously. On the other hand, a sense of humour failure can lead to losing your friends, your twitter account, your job, your career and, in some cases, your life.

James Cary knows about this. He is a sitcom writer who's written jokes about bomb disposal in Afghanistan (Bluestone 42), defended comments about Islam by Ben Elton on Newsnight, been on a panel with radical Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary, sits on the General Synod of the Church of England and somehow managed to co-write episodes of Miranda. An odd mix, but one that makes him very readable. This entertaining, breezy book, explains how comedy works (with jokes and quotes) and gives much-needed insights into the controversy surrounding humour.

Summary:

Maisie doesn't understand why her mother can't love her, but she knows that her life is hard and deeply unhappy. When her stepfather George, the only person she trusts, leaves, Maisie has no protector until she begins to escape.

She could never be quite sure when she first met up with Hamilton; most likely it was when she started talking to herself. But she didn't call him that then; that came much later when she was fourteen and Doctor Kane had to pay her a professional visit. Let's use our horse sense, he said, and at that precise moment what did Maisie see but a great horse galloping right over him and all the time looking at her, it's eyes full of knowledge and its lips drawn back as if in laughter. When Maisie saw the name Hamilton on the horse box, she adopted it for her new and secret companion. But if she could not talk to anyone about Hamilton, she could at least write about him.

And write she did, with results that would eventually broaden her horizons far beyond the confines of her native Tyneside. But Hamilton continued to live on in her mind and became the one to save her.
