Customer Reviews

My favorite book ever

I read this book from start to finish in one sitting. It was so good that I could not put it down I laughed all the way through like a little boy. Seinfeld has a great way of breaking down the simple things in life and making them even simpler. This was such an enjoyable experience to read I would recommend it to anyone who could use an easy breezy mindset

If you've seen the shows, you've heard it all before...

...but that doesn't make it any less hilarious or TRUE! These are Jerry Seinfeld's observations about life including things both big and small. His views are extremely funny such as on homophobia: "guys are a little afraid of homosexuals because they know that if they by accident went into a gay store that they could be talked into anything." Most of the observations will serve as repeated information for anyone who has seen every episode of Seinfeld. Many of the quips in this book turned into the monologues in the beginning of each Seinfeld episode. Nevertheless, this is a quick and fun read that will never be outdated because of it's extremely funny subject matter. JERRY, PLEASE RELEASE THE SHOWS ON DVD BY SEASON!! Recommended.

Seinfeld's book is a must read.

Seifeld's book is awesome. He writes in the form of his standup throughtout the book. His introspective humor is insightful and witty. The topics that he writes about go from everyday things to the compulsive and peculiar. In my opinion, his quirky humor is unique and very well crafted, almost poetic. Seinfeld is the voice of the compulsive perfectionist, weaving a satire of all of the foibles of people and the world. Seinlanguage is a wonderful book and highly recommended. But people must know that Seinlanguage is not a biography. It is a book of his standup routines and jokes. But nevertheless, Seinlanguage is a must read for any Seinfeld fan.

"Two thumbs up!" - Siskel & Ebert

Diddja ever notice how Siskel & Ebert never gave the "One thumb up!"? That's odd, cause when I see someone, I never give him the TWO thumbs up at once, I mean, what will the guy think? One thumb is quite enough, don't you think? Let's stick to the review though... I am a huge Seinfeld fan (that's rare for a French Canadian!) and I read pretty much everything on Seinfeld-related topics. "SeinLanguage", a collection of Seinfeld's stand-up bits, has become my own little bible. Honnest! Jerry is a very talented stand-up comedian and I literaly fell in love with his way of analyzing life's excrutiating minuatiae. He is very impressive. So, if it rains out there or if you're away and you miss someone, I strongly believe that "SeinLanguage" is the book to get a bright smile back on your face! Enjoy!
