'That Which Is Not Said' is look at you's first publication.
It is a collection of poetry by comedians. Many stand ups it seems have an
inner poet of sorts that they are unable to express through stand up, so
the idea behind this book was to give comics a blank remit - submit
whatever they please - and this is the most interesting aspect, to see what
comics will come up with given complete freedom. So the content is varied,
from poignant verse to puerile ditties, what we're left with a hilarious
but tender tome; the perfect joke book.
