Fiction

A sharp new collection from the hilarious (Washington Post) humorist who draws comparisons to Douglas Adams (New York Times), James Thurber, and P. G. Wodehouse (Guardian).

Simon Rich, one of the funniest writers in America (Daily Beast), is back with his most hilarious-and most personal-collection of stories to date.

From a bitter tell-all by the horse Paul Revere rode to greatness, 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.
