Jerry Seinfeld ist ein gefeierter amerikanischer Komiker, der für seinen beobachtenden Humor bekannt ist, der sich intensiv mit den Details des täglichen Lebens auseinandersetzt. Sein wegweisendes Fernsehwerk, das er mitentwickelte und in dem er die Hauptrolle spielte, erforscht meisterhaft die Absurditäten alltäglicher Situationen mit einem scharfen Blick für Details. Über seine Stand-up-Karriere hinaus hat sich Seinfeld auch als Autor etabliert. Seine humorvollen Bücher, die oft aus seinem Stand-up-Material schöpfen, fangen seine ausgeprägte Schreibstimme ein. Seinfelds Vermächtnis liegt in seiner unvergleichlichen Fähigkeit, Komik im Alltäglichen zu finden und sie der Welt auf einzigartige und fesselnde Weise zu präsentieren.
The first and second seasons that will take you back to the beginning of Seinfeld
Who is Ted L. Nancy? He's a superstitious Vegas high-roller who wants to gamble at a casino in his lucky shrimp outfit... He's the genius inventor of "Six Day Underwear"... He's a stage actor who only travels while dressed as a stick of butter... He is, in reality, a twisted prankster—a supremely off-kilter alter ego who sends patently ridiculous letters to corporate honchos, entertainment conglomerates, national publications, politicians, celebrities and heads of state. His innocent requests, queries, complaints, demands, and suggestions are so absurd it is amazing they fool anyone—but often the deadpan responses he receives are even more hilarious: "Dear Mr. Nancy, It is not often that we receive such enthusiastic support for the paper bag." —The Paper Bag Council "On behalf of Greyhound, there should be no problem traveling while in your butter costume." —Greyhound Bus Lines "I look forward to working with you to create a better future for this great nation." —Vice President Al Gore Letters From A Nut is an insanely inspired, truly madcap collection of Nancy correspondence, a wet-yourself-in-a-public place funny aggregation of official—and officially certifiable—requests, complaints, fan mail and questions that could not possibly have been taken seriously...but, amazingly, were.
A humorous tale about the Halloween experience as remembered by the author himself, from bad trick-or-treat candy to pajama-like costumes, enhanced with vibrant illustrations.

Since his first performance at the legendary New York nightclub "Catch a Rising Star" as a twenty-one-year-old college student in fall of 1975, Jerry Seinfeld has written his own material and saved everything. "Whenever I came up with a funny bit, whether it happened on a stage, in a conversation, or working it out on my preferred canvas, the big yellow legal pad, I kept it in one of those old school accordion folders," Seinfeld writes. "So I have everything I thought was worth saving from forty-five years of hacking away at this for all I was worth." For this book, Jerry Seinfeld has selected his favorite material, organized decade by decade. In page after hilarious page, one brilliantly crafted observation after another, readers will witness the evolution of one of the great comedians of our time and gain new insights into the thrilling but unforgiving art of writing stand-up comedy
