description: Zsfia Bans Night School: A Reader for Adults uses a textbook format to build an encyclopedia of lifesubject by subject from self-help to geography to chemistry to French. With subtle irony Bans collection of lectures guides readers through the importance and uses of the power of Nohoo (or know-how) tells of the travels of young Flaubert to Egypt with his friend Maxime and includes a missive from Laika the dog minutes before being blasted off into space never to be seen again. A wildly clever book that makes our all-too-familiar world appear simultaneously foreign and untamed and brings together lust taboos and the absurd in order to teach us the art of living.
