It's like This American Life in written form.
Unlike any nonfiction work I've ever read. Every single.. work, shall I say, is written in a conversational tone. The best thing is the author seems to understand that nonfiction can be a boring pain in the ass..
Not sure what to say about this one. I liked it but it was not the same as some of his others. I liked the broader picture he was trying to present but at the same time he never fully recognized those ideas. In the end it is an entertaining read not bad not great.
I am unclear as to whether or not I love this book because in the first 4 stories they mention the U of C in two of them, but I do think it is an amazing book and recommend it to everybody. And I don't even usually like non-fiction.
