— Obscenely funny.  The epitome of political incorrectness.  From Hemingway to Camus to Du Fu, this scatological and irreverent narrative will guide your inner, lion-hearted maleness through some of literature's most interesting personalities, macho or not.  The main character, who "wrote 13 theses, six dissertations and 34 monographs for other people" and, ironically, in his own prose, remains nameless, sketches a blend of colloquial, intellectual, and lustful adventures that will hook you from beginning to end.
