The Penguin Book of New Zealand Jokes by John Barnett and Lesley Kaiser

A Cheeky Collection Of Kiwi Humour

Very Good Condition - Minor wear to cover edges and corners.

John Barnett and Lesley Kaiser, in association with Brian Schaab, gather a broad selection of jokes in this irreverent New Zealand humour collection. Bar-room stories, familiar comic characters, outrageous situations and unexpected punchlines share the pages with jokes about relationships and everyday life. The humour ranges from groan-inducing wordplay to decidedly adult material, reflecting the book's deliberately cheeky approach. Intended for dipping into rather than reading as a continuous narrative, it offers plenty of short pieces to browse and retell. Readers who enjoy traditional joke books will find an assortment of tall tales and comic reversals, with a Kiwi flavour and little interest in being polite.
