Well, 'Good Omens' co - written by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett is a great example. It combines humor with the end - of - the - world scenario in a really funny way. The banter between the angel and the demon is highly entertaining. Also, 'Me Talk Pretty One Day' by David Sedaris is very humorous. Sedaris shares his personal and often embarrassing experiences in a self - deprecating and funny way.

Another characteristic is the creation of quirky characters. These characters usually have strange habits or beliefs.

Well, 'Candide' by Voltaire (again, not strictly American but highly influential on American satire). It's a very humorous take on the idea of optimism in the face of a cruel world.
