If you’ve read any of George Carlin’s other books you no doubt had some great laughs since they were basically stand-up material, but Last Words: A Memoir delves deeper as a true narrative to the comedian’s life. It’s often said that creative people suffer for their art and although George certainly suffered in his life, he never takes on the role of the victim, but used his experience to bring his own raw comedic outlook to the world. Just like his legendary stand-up from he days of “Seven Words You Can Never Say On Television”, Last Words has the same abrasive honesty that made Carlin one of the greatest comedians of all time.
