In this recording from Friday, April 3, 2009, as part of the 40th Annual UND Writers Conference: “Wit,” Chuck Klosterman, Steve Almond, and Charles Baxter participate in a panel called “The Comic Ghetto.” The panelists discuss what it means to be labeled a “humorist,” how they see their work being influenced by other writers, if they think that they are writing from a particular gendered perspective, the significance of using multiple voices in any given work, the role of personal experience in their writing, how humor is used in literature, and whether there is a limit to the use of humor, and other things.
