Have you ever just wanted a book that could sit on your coffee table and give the impression you were interesting and smart? to slow down the time: stories is that book!
But you’re not just buying one of those books people have to look interesting and smart! Included inside for no extra charge are writing and pictures that are actually interesting and smart! Do you see?
Since Ian Dingman did the Criterion edition of Bottle Rocket (how awesome is that?!), a lot of people compare the look of the book to Wes Anderson. Now imagine that cool look, but replace all the tired neurotic characters of Mr. Anderson with a variety of stories covering a variety of emotions, all written by the talented Matthew Allard!
It sounds like I’m being silly, but that’s only because I have yet to figure out how to describe owning this book. It’s like being the first hipster to have a mustache. A book mustache!
Does that help? Just do yourself a favor and buy it. Better yet, DON’T buy it, so I can continue to feel cool owning a copy while you sit there alone watching CSI: Miami. Don’t look at me like that. You did this to yourself.
