Disquiet, Please! More Humor Writing from the New Yorker edited by David Remnick and Henry Finder

The kind of humour that you'd expect given that it's all drawn from the pages of the New Yorker - literary, satirical, self-deflating, urban, strongly Jewish-flavoured (and short)...Dorothy Parker, Robert Benchley, Woody Allen, Garrison Keillor, Steve Martin, George Saunders, David Sedaris, etc, including plenty of newer voices, most of whom I didn't know. Diverting, but only a handful of laugh-out-loud moments (McSweeney's humour, by contrast, regularly has me helpless with laughter) - which maybe comes with the territory, the humour tending much more towards the wry than the broad.
