- The Post-Pandemic Human Condition: The recent and unprecedented global events of the early 2020s have led to a spike in disillusioned media full of macabre humor. Social discourses about the absurdities of life are eagerly consumed by readers like Melvinthose obsessed with the perceived monotony and futility of life. Nathaniel Stein honors the drudgery of life in the 21st century in a hilariously original way while asking the terrifying question: Why don't we feel alive?
- A Thrilling Turn of Events: The most exciting part of Melvin Levin's life is cleaning up after his neighbor's frequently vomiting cat. Until he receives a mysterious death threat in the mail. Under the thrill of potentially getting murdered, Melvin begins to feel truly alive again. Soon, it becomes frighteningly clear that the greatest danger to Melvin might not be his threatener but his own deranged mind.
- Talented and Accomplished Debut Author: Nathaniel Stein works as a television writer in Los Angeles. His humor has appeared in the New Yorker, the New York Times, the Daily Beast and other publications, and he has written non-fiction for the New Yorker's website and for the Daily Beast and the Los Angeles Review of Books. Among the TV shows he has written for are Curb Your Enthusiasm and Angie Tribeca. Before working in television, he was a fact-checker at the New Yorker. This is his first novel.
- Unpretentious Literary Fiction: Stein's entertaining and unexpectedly profound writing style will grant readers a sense of edification and accomplishment while also making them laugh. Fans of George Saunders and Paul Rudnick will be delighted by this laugh-out-loud, thought-provoking story.
