  Congratulations! You’ve matched with a Tech Bro. Maybe he built a “disruptive” app that nobody asked for. Maybe he describes himself as an “entrepreneur” but lives with four roommates. Maybe he just pitched you a startup idea during your first date. Either way, welcome to the rollercoaster ride that is dating a man who thinks “Web3” is a personality. 
  This hilariously brutal field guide will help you navigate, survive, and ultimately regret your decision to date a man whose primary relationship is with his second monitor. You’ll learn: 
  ✔️ Why he refers to your love life as an "MVP" (minimum viable product) 
  ✔️ How to decode his texts ("Let’s sync later" = He’s ghosting you) 
  ✔️ Why he still wears hoodies even though he has six-figure stock options 
  ✔️ The warning signs that your next breakup will be sent via Google Docs 
  If you’ve ever dated a guy who uses the phrase “scaling our relationship,” this book is for you. It won’t save you, but at least you’ll go into the next disaster fully informed. 
  🚨 WARNING: Side effects of reading this book may include deleting LinkedIn, blocking startup bros, and questioning every life choice that led you here.

  LaserWriter II - A Novel

  From the incomparable New York Times and New Yorker illustrator Tamara Shopsin, a debut novel about a NYC printer repair technician who comes of age alongside the Apple computer. 
   
   
   
  Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2021 by Lit Hub 
   
   
   
  LaserWriter II is a coming-of-age tale set in the legendary '90s indie NYC Mac repair shop TekServe—a voyage back in time to when the internet was new, when New York City was gritty, and when Apple made off-beat computers for weirdos. Our guide is Claire, a nineteen-year-old who barely speaks to her bohemian coworkers, but knows when it's time to snap on an antistatic bracelet. 
   
   
   
  Tamara Shopsin brings us a classically New York novel that couldn't feel more timely. Interweaving the history of digital technology with a tale both touchingly human and delightfully technical, Shopsin brings an idiosyncratic cast of characters to life with a light touch, a sharp eye, and an unmistakable voice. 
   
   
   
  Filled with pixelated philosophy and lots of printers, LaserWriter II is, at its heart, a parable about an apple.

  Badan Chowdhurir Shok Sabha:...

  Rajshekhar Basu

  The story attempts a funny pot-shot at the polarization of two diametrically opposing political philosophies, namely, socialism and capitalism. The narrative of the plot, built around a humorous discord between these two seeming mutually exclusive but equally susceptible political tenets, is manifested in a verbal duel where each proponent lays bare the demerits of the opposing system.  
  The icing on the cake is the witty social contextualization of the plot by the legendary humorist - Rajshekhar Basu alias Parashuram or Parashurama or Parshuram, which helps expose the vulnerability and scope of corruption under either system with a tongue-in-cheek commentary suggesting possible atonement only under divine intervention in a purported afterlife. Wickedly funny dissection of our existential confusion regards our political consciousness; the story is food for thought for self-reflection in steering our life’s priorities.

  Eric Litsky brings us on a funny, rollicking, heartfelt trip down memory lane, from coming of age adventures, to growing up and still being the free-spirited and roguish adult that keeps the neighborhood on its toes. 
  By all counts, you could say Eric Litsky had a pretty standard freewheeling childhood. Growing up in the 1950’s and 60’s, there was little supervision and a whole lot of mischief. 
  What makes Litsky’s reminiscing unique is the view he brings to the stories as he takes the reader along for the trip down memory lane, all while integrating poignant little insights into lessons that are so uniquely human. 
  A delightful read for book lovers of all walks of life, you’ll laugh out loud, shake your head, and maybe reach for a tissue once or twice. Get ready for a very fun ride. 
  Frying Pork Chops Naked is the follow-up to Eric Litsky’s first book, Harry Would be So Proud.
