The Novelty Essays - Adam Matcho - Bog

Twice flunked out of college, Adam Matcho -- newly married and newly a father -- finds himself in school again, rushing to classes between shifts at a novelty store. In here, the weird have turned capitalist. Customers need goods. Adam needs work. He needs a degree to get a better job, but the hours are endless and the pay not enough. Only Adam Matcho could make us laugh at a world that wants us to be zombies in a George Romero film. Deeper than the news but just as current, THE NOVELTY ESSAYS reveal how we work, what those hours do, and how a story can save us all. "Adam Matcho has more talent than most corporations have profits, and his vision of America is tragic and brilliant and hilarious." -- Dave Newman, author of TWO SMALL BIRDS and more
