Some of these short shorts made me laugh aloud: Javier, The Monroe Family Bed Wishes to Die. Some of made me feel uncomfortable, like those with hookers and lots of cursing. Most of them were narrated by a creepy guy, which was alternately funny and uncomfortable, as was the art that accompanied each short. The book itself is a lovely object, and comfortable or not, it's funny and provoking, and I consumed it in an afternoon.
