Before the white suit and the banjo, there was the grind. Martin’s memoir is less about fame and more about the lonely architecture of becoming funny — the repetition, the reinvention, the silence between laughs. It’s a masterclass in creative persistence from comedy’s most meticulous philosopher–clown.
