Book Synopsis Nein, Nein, Nein!: One Man's Tale of Depression, Psychic Torment, and a Bus Tour of the Holocaust by : Jerry Stahl
Download or read book Nein, Nein, Nein!: One Man's Tale of Depression, Psychic Torment, and a Bus Tour of the Holocaust written by Jerry Stahl and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback and featuring an interview with Ben Stiller; a guided group tour to concentration camps allows Stahl to confront personal and historical demons with both deep despair and savage humor IN SEPTEMBER 2016, JERRY STAHL was feeling nervous on the eve of a two-week trip across Poland and Germany. But it was not just the stops at Auschwitz, Buchenwald, and Dachau that gave him anxiety. It was the fact that he would be traveling with two dozen strangers, by bus. In a tour group. And he was not a tour-group kind of guy. The decision to visit Holocaust-world did not come easy. Stahl’s lifelong depression at an all-time high, his career and personal life at an all-time low, he had the idea to go on a trip where the despair he was feeling—out-of-control sadness, regret, and fear, not just for himself, but for the entire United States—would be appropriate. And where was despair more appropriate than the land of the Six Million? Seamlessly weaving global and personal history, through the lens of Stahl’s own bent perspective, Nein, Nein, Nein! stands out as a triumph of strange-o reporting, a tale that takes us from gang polkas to tourrash to the truly disturbing snack bar at Auschwitz. Strap in for a raw, surreal, and redemptively hilarious trip. Get on the bus.

Book excerpt: Arguably the ugliest but most functional device in the human body—symbols of manliness, objects of ribald humor and obscenities, imparting sexual pleasure and ensuring the continuation of the human race—the testicles (or balls, eggs, bullocks, stones, nuts . . . whatever you’re inclined to call them) have been all but totally ignored in the writings of even internationally celebrated sex authorities. The Pleasures of Testicles exams these under-appreciated hallmarks of male sexuality from all angles.

Book Synopsis Why I'm Like This by : Cynthia Kaplan
Download or read book Why I'm Like This written by Cynthia Kaplan and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-04-07 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cynthia Kaplan takes us on a hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking journey through her unique, uncensored world—her bungled romantic encounters and unsung theatrical experiences; her gadget-obsessed father, her pill-popping therapist, and her eccentric grandmothers; her fearless husband, whom she engages in an ongoing battle over which of them is the most popular person in their apartment; and, of course, her vengeful, power-hungry one-year-old son. Kaplan's voice is a lot like the one in our heads—the one that most of us are only willing to listen to late at night . . . maybe while locked in a closet. What a relief it is that someone finally admits that she is afraid of nearly everything; that she is jealous even of people whose lives are on the verge of collapse; and that she has, at times, tried to pass for a gentile.
