This hilarious collection of short stories from the award-winning humorist Simon Rich includes the story that inspired the Seth Rogen comedy An American Pickle. Having skewered the problems of falling in and out of love in The Last Girlfriend on Earth, Simon Rich's next book is another subject we can all relate to: parents and their kids. From the perils of raising an actual monster in Manhattan - it's pretty hard to find teachers who really understand the talents of a five-year-old with horns and a taste for blood - to Sell Out, the story of Simon's ancestor, returned to life decades after an industrial accident involving pickling brine, these stories are inventive, witty and sometimes a bit too much like real life.
Simon Rich is a graduate of Harvard University, where he was president of The Harvard Lampoon. He has worked for Pixar and Saturday Night Live, and is now working on other film and TV projects as well as his books. He has published Last Girlfriend on Earth [9781846689222], Elliot Allagash [9781846687556], and What In God's Name [9781846688492] with Serpent's Tail. He lives in New York City.
