Description:

"This book is a thorough and precise account of how humor works in short stories, covering the main areas of linguistic analysis and beyond. It offers a model of narrative comedy that is not only interdisciplinary, but also innovative, accessible and explanatory. The volume looks at humorous narratives from a new perspective that is rendered in a clear language and supplemented by definitions of key concepts and a wealth of examples."--Jacket.
