This work was created while Lardner was writing a sports column for The Chicago Tribune, first appeared in The Saturday Evening Post. It was later published in the book form in 1916. You Know Me Al shows Lardner as a satirical master: a fine and misanthropic storyteller with a excellent feel for the niceties of characters and speech.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 252 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2007-03-15\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Jungle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48278584983778,"sku":"9781594625671","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/0005\/1501\/files\/9781594625671.jpg?v=1787955639","url":"https:\/\/www.mangadeal.com\/products\/9781594625671","provider":"Manga Deal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
