A kids book for grown ups
Have you read the book Go The Fuck to Sleep? A friend let me look at a copy this week and I swear I had tears running from my eyes reading it.
The author Adam Mansbach’s latest novel, The End of the Jews (Spiegel & Grau) won the California Book Award and was translated into five languages. His previous novel, the bestselling Angry Black White Boy (Crown), is taught at more than sixty colleges, universities and high schools. In fact the book has so hit a craze it was at the top of Amazon’s best-sellers list a month before it’s was released. The illustrator is Ricardo Corté.
Here’s one page.
The giant pangolins of Madagascar are snoozing.
As I lie here and openly weep.
Sure, fine, whatever, I’ll bring you some milk.
Who the fuck cares? You’re not gonna sleep
If you’re a parent albeit a sleep deprived one or remember acutely what that was like, you will SO associate with this book. Get your hands on a copy, read it and weep….with laughter!
