- Outline
- When it was first published in 1996, Des MacHale's "Wit" broke new ground and became an instant hit. A decade later, it continues to sell consistently well and is regarded as a core humour title with an appeal that spans generations. Des MacHale's eye for a witty one-liner remains unparalleled and his 'Wit' series now comprises eight volumes, each just as funny as its predecessor. Now, reissued in a beautifully produced small format hardback edition, it will be retitled "The Original Wit" and positioned as the humour classic that it has become.
