This Book Will Change Your Life

For the reader who's exhausted from inspirational books that don't live up to their promises, THIS BOOK WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE offers comic relief and plenty of opportunities to lighten up. Subtitled 365 Daily Instructions For Hysterical Living, this pseudo-instruction manual pokes hilarious fun at the entire culture of self-improvement. Benrik (a pseudonymic combination of the names of Ben Carey and Henrik Delehag) adds to their collection of humorous publications with this book, which presents a daily dose of humor to spice up an entire year. Numbered day-by-day from one to 365, this spoof presents a specific, tongue-in-cheek, instruction on each page, in a style almost serious enough to convince the reader to try some of the directions. These include Sense-less Day, recommending that the reader attempt to do without the sense of taste, and Go Through a Phase Day. Every page contains highly comical suggestions, some more complex than others, in varying degrees of impossibility, hilarity, and creative unlikeliness. Who knows? Perhaps THIS BOOK WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE really would transform the existence of someone who followed it exactly. Meanwhile, it makes for absurd, laugh-out-loud entertainment. The gift-giver with a self-helper on the list will find that this satirical guide fits the bill precisely. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
