A brilliant new collection from "one of the funniest writers in
America"-- Jimmy So, "Daily Beast."
In his collection SPOILED BRATS, Simon Rich takes his absurd,
culture-skewering style to new heights, marrying the literary
polish of writers like Karen Russell and George Saunders with the
humor of Steve Martin to deliver truly dazzling tales.
SPOILED BRATS is about the battles we fight with the ones who love
us most: our parents. In "Family Business," a young chimpanzee
offends his working class father by choosing to become a research
animal instead of joining the family grub-hunting business. In
"Proud Mom," a young mother is so besotted she doesn't realize her
child is actually, truly a monster. And in "Animals," the fate of a
terrified classroom hamster hangs in the balance when a notorious
kid is picked for hamster care duty.
SPOILED BRATS confirms Rich as one of the most "adept, inarguably
funny" (San Francisco Chronicle) young writers at work today.
