In love as in comedy, timing is everything. One bad night doesn’t mean it’s time to quit. Have patience: great marriages, like a career as a comedian, take time. With her trademark humor and sharp yet reverent tone, writer and comedian Dani Klein Modisett shares a map for navigating your marriage through rough patches, bad jokes, and even nights when you bomb. Dani has interviewed dozens of well-known comedians, comic writers, and marriage counselors to deliver unique marriage “material.” The wisdom gleaned from these devotees of both comedy and marriage illuminates the core premise in every relationship: Humor matters. Take My Spouse, Please artfully shows how the axioms of comedy are, not coincidentally, also the axioms of a thriving life as a party of two. The celebration of love and humor — from gut-busting celebrity interviews to earnest advice — is the heart and soul of Take My Spouse, Please.
