Book Overview
Dead Funny is the first history of humour and jokes directed at the Nazis: from the anti-Nazi theatre scene of the 20s and 30s, to the jokes about Hitler and the Nazis told during WWII, to the cracks told about Hitler in Germany today. It is a fascinating, frightening and ground-breaking history. Author and acclaimed director Rudolph Herzog unveils the unknown tales of the Germans who were imprisoned and executed for telling jokes about Hitler and other Nazi officials. Also documents the regimes attempts to suppress the surprising number of jokes in circulation.
