Thursday Morning Book Club

The Back-2-School Edition:

"dark comedy...boisterous satire of pseudointellectuals, impotent writers and the adult extension programs of public universities" Plus the main character's lectures "constitute a damn fine guide to writing fiction." --PW

and

“The author mows down worlds of artistic and psychological twaddle with killer sprays of language. Willett is effortlessly, furiously funny. . . . ”---Entertainment Weekly


Not YA...but darkly funny AND a writing guide? How can I resist?




The Abstinence Teacher by Tom Perrotta

Tom Perrotta + Sex Education
