A hilarious collection inspired by a former Saturday Night Live
writer's real experiences in Hollywood, chronicling the absurdity
of fame and the humanity of failure in a world dominated by social
media influencers and reality TV stars. Simon Rich is "one of the
funniest writers in America" (Daily Beast) -- a humorist who draws
comparisons to Douglas Adams (New York Times Book Review), James
Thurber, and P.G. Wodehouse (The Guardian). With Hits and Misses,
he's back with a hilarious new collection of stories about dreaming
big and falling flat, about ordinary people desperate for stardom
and the stars who are bored by having it all. Inspired by Rich's
real experiences in Hollywood, Hits and Misses chronicles all the
absurdity of fame and success alongside the heartbreaking humanity
of failure. From a bitter tell-all by the horse Paul Revere rode to
greatness to a gushing magazine profile of everyone's favorite
World War II dictator, these stories roam across time and space to
skewer our obsession with making it big -- from the days of ancient
Babylon to the age of TMZ.
