  If you’ve ever found yourself in a conversation thinking, “I have no idea what I’m talking about”—this book is your salvation. 
  In The Bullsht Artist’s Handbook*, self-proclaimed overthinker and professional nonsense generator Dicholas Chad Pansy offers a brutally honest, wildly practical guide to dominating conversations, debates, meetings, and social events with zero actual knowledge. No degrees, facts, or preparation required—just the audacity to sound like you know what you’re doing. 
  This isn’t about lying. This is about sounding smart, intimidatingly confident, and vaguely profound—all while saying absolutely nothing of substance. 
  Inside, you'll learn how to: 
  Weaponize confidence to bulldoze logic 
  Say a lot without saying anything (and get applause for it) 
  Use pauses, squints, and sighs to look like a genius 
  Win debates without facts (or shame) 
  Drop philosopher names you've never read (convincingly) 
  Bullsh*t your way through work meetings, parties, and even Twitter 
  Whether you're looking to survive awkward small talk, impress strangers at brunch, or gaslight your way to the top of the corporate ladder, this handbook is your guide to becoming a certified conversational menace. 
  Warning: This is a humor book. If you’re looking for actual personal growth, you’ve taken a very wrong turn.

  The Upstairs Delicatessen - On...

  Reading and eating, like Krazy and Ignatz, Sturm und Drang, prosciutto and melon, Simon and Schuster, and radishes and butter, have always, for me, simply gone together. The book is a product of these combined gluttonies. 
   
   
   
  Dwight Garner, the beloved New York Times critic and the author of Garner's Quotations, serves up the intertwined pleasures of books and food. The product of a lifetime of obsessively reading, eating, and every combination therein, The Upstairs Delicatessen: On Eating, Reading, Reading About Eating, and Eating While Reading is a charming, emotional memoir that only Garner could write. In it, he records the voices of great writers and the stories from his life that fill his mind as he moves through the sections of the day and of this book: breakfast, lunch, shopping, the occasional nap, drinking, and dinner. 
   
   
   
  Through his lifelong infatuation with these twin joys, we meet the man behind the pages and the plates, and a portrait of Garner, eager and insatiable, emerges. He writes with tenderness and humor about his mayonnaise-laden childhood in West Virginia and Naples, Florida (and his father's famous peanut butter and pickle sandwich), his mind-opening marriage to a chef from a foodie family, and the words and dishes closest to his heart. This is a book to be savored, though it may just whet your appetite for more.
