Pitch, “Thoughts on T-shirts, cities, Snooki, the Super Bowl, genitals, Trump, Bin Laden, Sherwood Anderson and who should be shot, etc.”
Pitch, “A reader comments that I’m best at ‘fishing out strange stories from random people whom no one would otherwise hear about.’ These tales are only strange because each of our struggling life is unique. Yours, too, is freakish, but we’re all still here, in whatever condition. Not just portraits, these are also depictions of places, so you’ll be plunged into Philadelphia, Saigon, Vung Tau, Skopje, Shkoder, Pakse and Kracheh, etc. Any exoticism, though, is superficial. This book is your mirror.”
Pitch, “Glancing deep thoughts on Polish geniuses vs jokes, tattooed skin lampshades, Golda Meir, Gertrude Stein, Jerzy Kosinski, David Irving, Fred Leuchter, Mein Kampf, Weimar madness, Ho Chi Minh as a Taiwanese Hakka, Marguerite Duras, Mekong Delta playboys, attachment to Puget Sound and a wandering Aussie.”
It’s pure anti-Semitism I haven’t received the Sapir Prize for this Judaica classic!
Pitch, “A wandering fool babbles about topics no one gives a Trumpian tarriff about, such as Đề Thám, Cà Mau, U Minh, Chinese George of Blue Bell, PA, Sóc Trăng and an alley cafe in Vung Tau where over the hill broads muse about dog food and other existential matters. Like a court jester, America's greatest president makes frequent appearances. Though inexplicably ignored by CNN, FOX News, The New York Times and Haaretz, here's the full transcript of the author's 2025 commencement address at Yeshiva University in NYC. I reflect on Annie Proulx's astonishing "The Half-Skinned Steer" and muse on museums. With sales so low, this book will surely become the rarest of collector's items within seconds of release, so snag yours now!”
I will buy a book
