Description

A fabulously off-beat collection of short stories about love—the best and worst thing in the universe—written by the creator of BoJack Horseman with his hallmark scathing dark humor “Transcendent tragicomedy.... Prepare to be devastated and made whole again.” —The A.V. Club Featuring: • A young engaged couple forced to deal with interfering relatives dictating the appropriate number of ritual goat sacrifices for their wedding. • A pair of lonely commuters who ride the subway in silence, forever, eternally failing to make that longed-for contact. • A struggling employee at a theme park of U.S. presidents who discovers that love can’t be genetically modified. And fifteen more tales of humor, romance, whimsy, cultural commentary, and crushing emotional vulnerability. Read more

  • Surprisingly Thoughtful Short Stories
Format: Paperback
I will be honest: I mostly bought this because the cover is such a pretty pink and I am, in my heart, a barbie girl. That being said, this is an incredible book rec for Barbie girls- and not the Malibu Barbie. I'm talking disillusioned, deeply inquisitive, depressed Greta Gerwig Barbie. Each short story in this book is wildly creative and fantastical while still offering relatable and often heartfelt metaphor and real-world applicability. I was surprised to find this was written by the creator of Bojack Horseman because they seem so wildly different, but this book is so clever and witty at times that it's quite clear the creator is a comic. My favorite short story was a really macabre feature about a couple planning their wedding- it's deep, it's gory, it's awe-some and ridiculous, and most of all it is hauntingly, frustratingly relatable. I would definitely recommend this to anyone, especially if you're new to the weird and bizarre. ... show more

  • Great, great short stories
Format: Hardcover
I love this book!! I bought it right after it came out when one of my favorite radio shows was interviewing the author and reading excerpts- laughing hysterically the whole time. It's a hoot and so universal- even when it gets into the fantastical. Wish I had more time to edit this. This book lovely and so funny- my snarky teenage daughter loves it too- it's her sense of humor. I love how it seems to capture all of my bad relationships and also an even worse version of all of my bad relationships. You know that moment when your relationship is driving over the cliff and you start to imagine, well- it could be worse... These stories capture the worst versions. The writing is superb! ... show more

  • Two thumbs up from a couples therapist
Format: Hardcover
As a couples therapist, I traffic in the world of love and relationships. Each of the short stories in this book applies an incredible (usually metaphorical) view of the nuances, joys, trials, and tribulations of relationships--romantic or otherwise. I will also add that I have always intentionally avoided short stories because I was worried that I would get invested in the characters only for it to end. But each of these are well-paced, impactful, and leave you going, "hmmm," afterwards.It's quite possible that it's changed my perspective on short story collections forever. I'm also now motivated to watch Bojack Horseman. Raphael is clearly brilliant. Please order and read this book. You won't regret it. ... show more

  • Hilarious.
Format: Kindle
A great and truly original collection of essays, living in the hilarious and sometimes moving space somewhere between Sedaris and Saunders. I couldn't put it down.

  • Some good, some okay
Format: Paperback
I liked this book, it was a really easy read. Some of the stories were really good. However, a couple of the short stories were just not very well done.
