Happy Cruelty Day!: Daily Celebrations of Quiet Desperation

"I just wanted to give you a warning before you bought this book. You will enjoy it. But it will also crush your heart." -John Hodgman, author of THE AREAS OF MY EXPERTISE For everyone looking to find a little extra magic in a life with little to celebrate, "Happy Cruelty Day!" is here. Beginning on January 1, the book features 365 new holidays, each accompanied by a strange and often disgusting humorous short story explaining the day you woke up in and how to celebrate it. These 365 daily doses of delight, perversion, and nonsense include "Hire Someone Attractive To Pretend To Love You Day," "Hang on to Your Wide-Eyed Innocence Day," "Sit in Abject Terror Day," and, of course, "Cruelty Day."Raw, ridiculous, and laugh-out-loud funny, this is a sharp-edged satire on the subtleties, shallowness, and stupidity of daily life.
