A new collection of greatest hits from one of the greatest comedians of our time, George Carlin, now the subject of the HBO documentary George Carlin's American Dream, directed by Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio George Carlin was: "a true, true artist" (Chris Rock)."the master" (Jon Stewart)."one of the Mount Rushmore guys in our profession" (Jerry Seinfeld)."the comedian's comedian" (Jay Leno)."an icon for comedy" (Margaret Cho)."a deep thinker and a very, very funny man" (Lily Tomlin)."one of my heroes" (Stephen Colbert)."brilliant" (Joan Rivers).
You can't talk about comedy legends without talking George Carlin. Named the greatest standup of all time by XM Radio's "All Time Comedy Greats" (and #2 by both Comedy Central and Rolling Stone), Carlin garnered multiple gold records, 4 Grammys, 6 Emmy nominations, and the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. He was the first host of SNL, appeared on the Tonight Show some 130 times, and acted in beloved films like Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure and Dogma.
Dubbed "the dean of counterculture comedians, " there was no one like George Carlin.    Featuring a foreword by Lewis Black and an introduction by Carlin's longtime best friend and manager, A Modern Man is a perfect introduction for new fans and a must-have for longtime fans, showcasing the longevity, range, and-above all-hilarity of the master. Filled with thoughts, musings, questions, lists, beliefs, curiosities, monologues, assertions, assumptions, and other delicious verbal ordeals, it is drop-dead funny tour through Carlin's singular mind.
More than ten years after his death, Carlin's characteristically ironic takes on life's annoying universal truths remain thoughtful, fearless, and somehow more relevant than ever.
