This is the second book I've read by Tony James Slater, and I certainly hope he'll be publishing another soon. This book is just as funny as his first one, and then BAM he actually threw in a few poignant moments as well. Totally unexpected, and yet, his narrative seamlessly flowed back into the hysterical without missing a beat.When I first began this book, I thought, okay, it's about an idiot traveling in the US. Then he traveled to England, France, some strange medical experiments, a sailing adventure, Thailand... After a while I really stopped caring where Tony went. All that mattered was that the story continued because the narrative was so damn funny. I'm pretty sure Slater could spend an entire day on the toilet and find a way to make it a hilarious, engaging, albeit disgusting, read.Slater is to memoir what Seinfeld was to sitcom --pure comedic brilliance. Keep writing, Slater.
