Diary of Indignities (pb)

DIARY OF INDIGNITIES NOVEL (PB) - Creators: Patrick Hughes (W) Description: A hilarious account of life's daily disappointments and victories, as told by blogger Patrick Hughes. From reminiscing about being a teen in the '70s to chronicling another family Christmas with Jello shots, Hughes has the right amount of candor, wit, and perversity for these vignettes to really pack a punch. Diary of Indignities first came to public notice on the popular blog Bad News Hughes (http://badnewshughes.blogspot.com), where thousands of readers are flabbergasted, disgusted, and amused every day by Hughes's whimsical stories of soul-melting shame. The indignities generated by the author's uncanny life and talent for personal failure include more than your average share of embarrassment, heartbreak, carefree violence, booze, bodily injury, hypochondria, inappropriate nudity, painful rashes, neuroses, colonoscopy procedures, and unpleasant smells, and are all totally true. Well, except for the bits that are really obviously just kind of made up. Most people can tell the difference. 256 pages.
