  Worse, as he slides down the employment ladder, from deskbound civil servant in Oxford to part-time washer-upper in Soho, he finds that critical reception for his epic novel, Lo! The Flat Hills of My Homeland, is not quite as he might have hoped. 
   
  But Adrian is about to discover that extraordinary and wonderful things may blossom even in the wilderness . . .

  "Boomers yelled at lawns. Gen X shrugged. Millennials therapized. Gen Z memes. Turns out-we're all just trying to laugh our way through the madness." 
  Diary of a Mad Boomer isn't just a memoir-it's a cross-generational roast. Gary E. Stern takes you from Cold War paranoia and draft notices to oat milk boba and doomscrolling, proving that absurdity is timeless and laughter is the only thing that still works. 
  Whether you're a Boomer made of asbestos and bourbon or a Gen Z'er rubbernecking the wreckage, this book is for anyone willing to admit the obvious: life is messy, stupid, and occasionally hilarious. 
  This book is a cranky, unfiltered ride through the booze-soaked '60s and the absurdities of survival in the army, told by a man too old to care what you think.

  How Not to Get Shot - And Other...

  A cutting satire of race relations in the age of Trump and Black Lives Matter from the hugely popular comedian—one of ""The Original Kings of Comedy""—and author of the New York Times bestseller Black Man, White House. 
  ""White people are always giving out ‘helpful’ advice, such as: ‘Comply with the police and you won’t get shot.’ They’ve been doling out advice to black people ever since ‘I suggest you pick the cotton if you don’t like getting whipped.’ Not getting shot by the police has long been a problem for black people. Even when we had a black president! Now that we have a new set of overlords, with President Trump at the head, wouldn’t it be nice to get a little advice on how not to get shot?"" 
  From the elections of Barack Obama and Donald Trump to the tragic events of Ferguson and Charlottesville, the subject of race has come to the forefront of American consciousness. Legendary satirist D. L. Hughley offers his own cutting observations on this contentious issue that continues to traumatize the nation, a wound made more painful by the ongoing comments and actions of the 45th president. 
  Hughley uses humor to draw attention to injustice, sardonically offering advice on a number of lessons, from ""How to make cops feel more comfortable while they’re handcuffing you"" and ""The right way to wear a hoodie"" to ""How to make white food, like lobster rolls"" and ""Ten types of white people you meet in the suburbs."" 
  How Not to Get Shot is a much-needed antidote in these distressing times.

  "I am not moving to Iraq to teach." 
  But the recession came hard for Gretchen Berg. Tens of thousands of dollars in debt, her only option was to uproot her life and move to the Middle East for work. She was prepared to make some good money, pay off some bad debt, take some photos of camels, and suffer through expected misogyny typical of the Middle East. She was unprepared for the drama and chaos that erupted within the well-intended, burgeoning university program, and the comical carnival of personalities she’d encounter, along with unexpected misogyny coming from inside the building. 
  How far out of your comfort zone do you have to go to find yourself? 
  Hilarious and irreverent, I Have Iraq in My Shoe takes a single, broke, fashion-obsessed American female who prefers fashion shows to news shows and launches her into Iraq where her patience, assumptions, resolve, and sense of self will be put to the test. 
  It’s a different kind of desert storm.
