Lewis Black is a man for his time: a walking, talking embodiment of frustration, rage, and fingerpointing disbelief. On The Daily Show, his apoplectic rants reached millions, giving solace to those sharing his befuddlement. His solo career takes him even further in defining and expanding his voice, attracting a widening audience dying for him to vent its collective spleen. With his unmitigated bluster, Black explains why people respond so viscerally to his point of view, how he learned he could do what he does, and why wealth keeps him hating the wealthy.


Lewis Black’s conversation with Paul Provenza is in the book.
