The Melvin Barnert Folio, 1st Ed., Rev. (Color)
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
This collection of humor, philosophy, ruminations, satire, history, and puns are from a man who thought independently and could breathe life onto a page capturing the essence of a moment. A professional journalist, Mel already knew the potency of words (“wurds” he’d say). His carefree observations on a wide variety of topics are often crafted with a sly wink. (That he was never an innocent becomes clear early on.) There’s substance, too. In the Essays section, Mel brings to life personal anecdotes about military service in WWII, the nature of the written word and musical phrasings of romance + much more. Reader Be Warned: You will find an occasional four-letter word and a short segment, “Sex and Scatology”. He doesn’t care so much about what you think about what he thinks as about whether you are thinking at all! He stimulates the gray matter and sets up clever ambushes for you on a regular basis. It’s a fun read, touching and all Mel. We’d recommend you take him on and see who wins!
