“The Weirdest and Most Glorious Book Ever Written.”
A fearless, fast-paced dark comedy that’s brilliantly written—and wildly funny.
Meet Puchy Mushkin.
A big dreamer and an even bigger loser whose spectacular failure as a human being is exceeded only by the enormity of his desire for success.
In a desperate bid to change his fate, Puchy vows to banish every dream, aim, goal, and ambition from his life… except one:
To assassinate desire itself and hang it by its feet like Mussolini.
What follows is the hilariously dark, raunchy, and irreverent tale of one man's twisted war with himself—an anti-story about an anti-hero whose only motivation is to have no motivation at all.
This Book Is For You If:
- ✓ You want comedy that’s actually funny (not just “quirky”)
- ✓ You appreciate brilliant writing and fearless honesty
- ✓ You’re tired of safe, predictable fiction and “likable” heroes
- ✓ You crave dark humor with a brain—and a libido.
