"Listen up Gen X, Gen Y, and Millennial Dads: the OG Dad has just plunked his creaky carcass down in the Barca-lounger and is about to spit some harsh, hilarious, and needful wisdom your way. Crack any of these essays and get smarter. You're welcome." --Patton Oswalt "This book has more truth and humor in one sentence than most people experience in a lifetime. I know nothing about children, but if Jerry Stahl can be a dad again after his hell of a ride, he's just about the only guy that gives me hope that someday I could be a great father, too." --Natasha Lyonne Jerry Stahl should either get the Pulitzer Prize or be shot down in the street like a dog. --Anthony Bourdain A better-than-Burroughs virtuoso. --The New Yorker No one can make me laugh while kicking me down the dark tunnel of self like Jerry Stahl. --Marc Maron Stahl's brilliantly demented riffs beg to be read--or screamed--out loud. --Entertainment Weekly
