Et Tu, Babe: 0000 (Vintage Contemporaries) - Softcover
When critics embraced Leyner's My Cousin, My Gastroenterologist and proclaimed him "the cult author of the 1990s, " little did they know they were creating a monster. For as portrayed in this fiendishly original new novel, Leyner takes off on a jet-propelled roller derby through the cultures of cyberpunk and celebrity. Author readings.

Review:
"Leyner's brilliantly discontinuous humor...begs to be read aloud to friends and strangers alike -- if only you could figure out where to stop." -- Village Voice "Leyner is a twisted wizard, a genre-busting virtuoso, working at the outer edge of narrative convention." -- Jay McInerney "Leyner is an original and immensely amusing writer as well as a provocative social critic." -- Washington Post Book World

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this fiendishly original new novel, Mark Leyner is a leather-blazer-wearing, Piranha 793-driving, narcotic-guzzling monster who has potential rivals eliminated by his bionically enhanced bodyguards, has his internal organs tattooed, and eavesdrops on the erotic fantasies of Victoria's Secret models -- which naturally revolve around him.Leyner's jet-propelled roller derby through the cultures of celebrity, cyberpunk, and rabid egotism is exhilaratingly bizarre, exhaustingly funny -- and you'd better hope it's just fiction. A kinetic, humorous novel captures the follies and foibles of the 1990s. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
