The Onion's Finest News Reporting, Volume 1 Paperback Book
by Scott Dikkers (Author), The Onion (Author), Robert Siegel (Author), Mike Loew (Author)

The Onion is the world's most popular humor periodical. Its first book, Our Dumb Century, was a New York Times #1 best-seller and winner of the 1999 Thurber Prize for American Humor. Now The Onion returns with Volume One of the paper's greatest, most hard-hitting stories, including:
--Clinton Deploys Vowels to Bosnia: Operation Vowel Storm Will Make Countless Bosnian Names More Pronounceable
--Jesus Christ Returns to NBA
--Microsoft Patents Ones, Zeroes
--I Can't Stand My Filthy Hippy Owner by Thunder the Ferret

Variously described as 'the cleverest and wittiest work of the year, or bastard century even' ("Melody Maker") or 'the funniest wisest book ever written' ("The Times"), The Onion team's first book, "Our Dumb Century", was widely and hugely praised. Their second tome delivers more hilarious satire in the same vein 'Muhammed Ali KO's "Ronald Reagan In Nursing Home Scuffle", "Drugs Win Drugs War", or "Martin Luther I Had A Really Weird Dream Last Night". The strength of The Onion lies in the fact that the text underneath the brilliant headlines is just as funny. As Nicholas Lezard said of "Our Dumb Century": 'I cannot imagine a funnier book being written - well, ever' ("Guardian").
