Class Clown: The Memoirs of a Professional Wiseass: How I Went 77 Years Without Growing Up spans Dave Barry’s life – from his childhood as the son of a Presbyterian minister to his tenure as a humor columnist at the Miami Herald and eventual member of a literary rock band. Class Clown is a vibrant celebration of a life rich with humor, absurdity, joy, and sadness. In Carl Hiaasen’s Fever Beach: A Novel, the worlds of half-baked crusader and former Proud Boy Dale, resilient newcomer Viva, and hotheaded environmentalist Twilly collide with dark money and twisted motives. The three become unlikely allies and together uncover a tangle of corruption and conspiracy led by a plastic surgery-loving billionaire couple and a clueless congressperson with delusions of grandeur.

DAVE BARRY is roughly 400 years old and has lived in Miami most of that time. He has written more than 23 million columns and 11,000 books, the most recent of which is Class Clown: The Memoirs of a Professional Wiseass: How I Went 77 Years Without Growing Up, his first and – he hopes – last memoir. You would probably enjoy it. It’s much more accurate than this biography.
