Critics Review
B.J. blew me away. He just keeps kicking short fiction in the rear, making it run ahead clutching its ass, and then he runs up and kicks it some more, and the result is one of the most aggressively, insanely awesome debuts in a while - Gary Shteyngart, author of Super Sad True Love Story
Everyone knew that B.J. Novak was smart and sexy, but funny, too!? Wow, screw that guy. I haven’t laughed at words this hard since I read - Joshua Ferris author of The Unnamed and Then We Came to the EndA funny writer with a great ear, but also a genuine storyteller with an observant eye and finely tuned emotional radar - New York Times - Michiko KakutaniA teller of funny, skew-whiff tales … Novak has, like, totally been compared to David Sedaris and Woody Allen, which is insane but also kinda true - New StatesmanRemarkably good. There’s a wildly eclectic range on display, from personal meditations to flights of absurdist whimsy - GuardianAbout The Author
