She may be an insane chimp, but shes my insane chimp!
Mike Sacks is writing the apotheosis of avant garde comedybooks written as found documents, trawling through the ephemera of suburban America, jokes low-brow, bizarre and visceral in a package more formally taut and wildly ambitious than nearly anything published as literary fiction today. Stinker Lets Loose is the deadly accurate novelization of a non-existent 70s drive-in film, complete with images from the set; it explores the implications behind Eastwood and Reynolds vehicles while one-upping them in puerility and wildness.
If you dont know who Mike Sacks is, well, you should. His writing is funnier than just about anyones and now he has a podcast that is excellent. I say Hooray for Mike Sacks and everything he stands for.-David Sedaris
Hes the best kind of comedy writer; a bona fide weirdo with virtually no interest in satisfying anything other than his own personal obsessions. -Andy Richter
