About this title

Review:

"Julie Klam is like Proust, if he wrote about dogs instead of madeleines, wrote in English instead of French, had better hair--and wrote exceptionally hilarious books that you can't help reading all at once."
--Patricia Marx

"[Julie Klam] can break your heart . . . then lift your spirits higher than a kite."
--The Huffington Post
