Since the Elizabethan age, when William Shakespeare’s plays were the delight of Globe Theatre patrons, word play has been a delectable pursuit for lovers of language. Across the centuries, homophones (words which sound alike but are spelled differently) have been one of our most fecund sources of humor. In 200 Homophone Jokes for Wordplay Lovers, Razvan S. Macovei applies his fresh wit to the age-old equation and comes up with a delightful, at times impish, volume of puns and one-liners, perfect for everyone from the curmudgeonly professor mourning the death of the English language to the jovial toastmaster searching for the ultimate “zinger” to add a festive air to a meeting or civic function.

Macovei’s jokes are exactly that - jokes. With refreshing directness, humility, and candor, he offers his jokes up as exactly what they are, without pretense or delusions of grandeur. Macovei’s 200 Homophone Jokes for Wordplay Lovers is precisely what it declares itself to be: a compendium of rib-tickling, occasionally groan-provoking jocular tidbits, sequentially numbered and ripe for harvest by any who wish to enliven an otherwise dull event or merely revel in a brief escape from the myriad mundane applications of what passes for English in our text message-based, cell phone-driven modern world. Razvan S. Macovei's 200 Homophone Jokes for Wordplay Lovers may not alter the course of world literature, but it will most assuredly entertain and amuse - two qualities sadly lacking in the bulk of what passes for good reading nowadays. So, be a lamb and get yourself a copy today! Thank ewe.
