Labor Day, 1969: Two recent college graduates move to New York to edit a new magazine called the National Lampoon. Over the next decade, Henry Beard and Doug Kenney, along with a loose amalgamation of fellow satirists such as Michael O’Donoghue and P. J. O’Rourke, popularized a smart, caustic, ironic brand of humor that has become the dominant voice of American comedy. Ranging from sophisticated political satire to broad raunchy jokes, the National Lampoon introduced iconoclasm to the mainstream, selling millions of copies to an audience both large and devoted.

Tutto comincia ad Asti, al numero 33 di corso Torino: è lì che nasce, "bambino fatto in casa", Giorgio Faletti. Sono passati 62 anni, che lui ha impiegato facendo il comico, il musicista, l'attore, il pittore, e naturalmente lo scrittore. Scorrendo l'elenco delle sue imprese (e parliamo solo di quelle professionali) sembra che Giorgio Faletti abbia vissuto mille vite. Di sicuro, scopriamo leggendo il suo nuovo libro, ne ha vissute due: "Quando" e "Ora" sono le prime due sezioni che compongono questa autobiografia fatta di musica e parole.

Have you ever wanted to go to prison? Of course not. What normal person would? But haven't you wondered what it would be like? To be locked up? To do hard time? What is it really like? Is it as bad as the movies? It can't be, can it? Spoiler alert: It is! How did I cope with it? By making jokes out of the situation, which was easier said than done some days.
