When "New York Times" bestselling author and comedian Jim Norton
isn't paying for massages with happy endings, or pretending to be
fooled by transsexuals he picks up, he spends his time wondering
what certain people would look like on fire...
What do Heather Mills, the Reverend Al Sharpton, and Dr. Phil
have in common? Jim Norton hates their guts. And he probably hates
yours, too, especially if you're a New York Yankee, Starbucks
employee, or Steve Martin.
In thirty-five hilarious essays, "New York Times" bestselling
author and comedian Jim Norton spews bile on the people he loathes.
Enjoy his blistering attacks on Derek Jeter, Hillary Clinton, fatso
Al Roker, and mush-mouthed Jesse Jackson. It's utterly hilarious --
and utterly relatable if you've ever bitten a stranger's face or
thrown a bottle through the TV screen while watching the news.
But don't think Jim just dishes loads of shit on his
self-proclaimed enemies; he is equally atrocious to himself. He
savages himself for his humiliating days as a white homeboy, his
balletlike spins in the outfield during a little league game, and
his embarrassingly botched attempt at a celebrity shout-out while
taping his new HBO stand-up series.
Uncomfortably honest, "I Hate Your Guts" is probably the best
example of emotional vomiting you'll ever read. But there is hope;
at the end of each essay, Jim generously offers helpful suggestions
as to how the offender can make things right again: Eliot Spitzer:
If you run for re-election, instead of shaking hands with voters,
let them smell your fingers.
Reverend Al Sharpton: The next time you feel the need to
protest, do so dressed as an elk in Ted Nugent's backyard.
Hillary Clinton: When you absolutely must make a point of
laughing publicly, don't fake it. Just think of something that
genuinely makes you laugh, like lowering taxes or any random male
having his penis cut off.
For the legions of devoted fans who know Jim Norton for his raw,
sometimes brutal comedy, "I Hate Your Guts" is what you've been
waiting for. But even more important -- it's a great book to read
while taking a shit.

"The Mount Rushmore of Adult Entertainment has four heads: John
Holmes, Marilyn Chambers, Jenna Jameson, and Seka. That's it; there
ain't no more." - Bill Margold, famed adult film actor, agent,
producer, director, and activist Seka-The Platinum Princess, the
Marilyn Monroe of Porn, the queen of XXX cinema's Golden Age, and
John Holmes' favorite leading lady. Seka is a legendary performer
in the annals of adult cinema, and many would say the greatest.
Seka's name was so big in XXX that her name above the title was not
enough-her name had to be in the title Seka's real life story,
though, is as enigmatic as her screen persona. She was never a
victim-on-screen or off. This is no tale of remorse, abuse, or
self-destructive behavior. Seka was post-feminist before the term
was born. Inside Seka is the story of a survivor, a trailblazer,
and an icon-still one of the most popular and famous porn stars
ever; the last of the natural beauties. "Before the Jennas, the
Bree Olsons, or the Savannas, the undisputed blonde bombshell of
XXX movies was Seka, which makes her story so important in the
history of adult entertainment." - Ron Jeremy, porn legend, holder
of the Guinness Book of World Records for "Most Appearances in
Adult Films." "From calling the shots in a film genre in the days
when it was completely controlled by men, to standing and being
heard at the infamous Meese Commission, Seka shatters the myth of
the poor little victim who lost her way. Don't expect excuses and
apologies. This is one blonde bombshell who lives by her own
rules." - Candida Royalle, author, entrepreneur, and erotic film
pioneer "She was one of the hottest girls in the XXX business, able
to seduce any man she wanted. So it should come as no surprise that
her story is riveting." - Larry Flynt, Hustler magazine Kerry Zukus
is the author, co-author, or ghostwriter of over 40 books,
including From Harvard to Hell and Back, the upcoming Inside the
Hotel Rwanda, and Book of the Month Club Feature Selection The
Fourth House.

Frances McDormand and Brian Cox star in this political thriller
directed by Ken Loach. After American human rights lawyer Paul
Sullivan (Brad Dourif) is shot dead at a police roadblock in
Belfast his girlfriend Ingrid (McDormand) comes to believe that he
was murdered because he discovered sensitive information regarding
the troubles in Northern Ireland. To calm the growing outrage, the
British Government assigns a top ranking police inspector (Cox) to
investigate, and together with Ingrid he uncovers a trail of
corruption, cover-ups and violence.
Twitter Trolls. Facebook Freaks. Instagram Exhibitionists. These
are just a few of the creatures our technology-obsessed culture has
spawned in its quest to simplify our lives. The madness is so
universal now that everyone has dealt with it. You login to
Facebook, read a stupid post, and immediately want to tell your
"friend" to go have relations with himself. Sure, social media may
keep us connected, but it is a breeding ground for idiots, and
these idiots have crowd-sourced a storm of useless information,
corny jokes, and douchebag drama that's wasting our time and
screwing with our peace of mind. Thankfully, popular comedian and
television host Jim Florentine has a solution for those of us on
the verge of bashing our iPhones to bits. In Everybody Is Awful,
Florentine attacks awful people and awful situations with the same
biting satire and cringe-worthy humor that made him famous on
television shows like Crank Yankers, Meet the Creeps, and That
Metal Show. Along the way, Everybody Is Awful takes readers through
the author's formative years, a time filled with rebellion and
horrible behavior, to the crazy early days of his career as a
stand-up comedian. Florentine also recounts how he developed an
obsession with pranks that morphed into his uniquely vigilante
style of comedy and made him one of the most legendary prank
callers of all time. Florentine excels at channeling the core rage
we all feel at the seemingly small annoyances of life and his fans
love the cathartic experience hidden within his hilarious ranting
and raving, a tradition continued in Everybody Is Awful. Acting as
a de facto therapist, Florentine diagnoses awful behavior, shames
awful people, and offers comedic takes on how to reclaim our lives
from it all.
