Review:
"Wonderfully absurd."
--The New York Times
"Hilarious . . . Nabokov's Pale Fire as directed by Wes Anderson."
--Time Out New York
"If Borges and Ben Franklin got drunk and decided to write a book together, the result might have been something a lot like this freaky 'almanac'."
--Tom Perrotta
"Even if you buy this book for the 700 hobo names alone, you will have gotten more than your money's worth."
--Dave Eggers
"A book of absurd tall tales, tables and charts spun from the warped brain of John Hodgman . . . Impressively eclectic."
