WINNER OF THE 2019 THURBER PRIZE FOR AMERICAN HUMOR
‘Genius … Who could ask for more? You can give his books to people and just watch them laugh. Only after you’ve snorted through them yourself, though’ Evening Standard
From a bitter tell-all by a horse who made a man famous and then got left behind to a gushing magazine profile of one of your favorite World War II dictators, these stories trawl through history to skewer our obsession with fame and fortune – all the way from ancient Babylon to Hollywood. What father-to-be wouldn’t feel a little jealous when his baby outstrips his success from the womb? And what happens when a film critic is forced to live in the movies he so cruelly damned?
Loved in the UK by celebs, writers and readers alike, from Lauren Laverne to Matt Haig and Caitlin Moran, Simon Rich is back with his funniest and most personal collection of stories to date.
