Klappentext
Contrary to what many of you might imagine, a career in letters is not without its drawbacks - chief among them the unpleasant fact that one is frequently called upon to actually sit down and write.Acerbic, wisecracking and hilarious, this is the definitive essay collection from the New York legend and satirist.
Lebowitz turns her trademark caustic wit to the vicissitudes of life - from children ('rarely in the position to lend one a truly interesting sum of money') to landlords ('it is the solemn duty of every landlord to maintain an adequate supply of roaches'). Her advice for would-be Absolute Political Dictators is invaluable ('Not recommended for the shy type'), and her attitude to work is the perfect antidote to our exhausting culture of self-betterment ('3.40pm. I consider getting out of bed. I reject the notion as being unduly vigorous. I read and smoke a bit more').

'Genuinely one of the funniest people in the world' IRENOSEN OKOJIE
