In the first book from one of this generation's hottest and boldest young comedians, Daniel Sloss presents a transgressive and hilarious analysis of all of our dysfunctional relationships, and attempts to point us in the vague direction of sanity.
Daniel Sloss engages, enrages, comforts, and gets audiences roaring with laughter. In his irreverent Netflix and HBO specials, he has tackled everything from male toxicity and friendship to love, romance and marriage. Sloss proudly claims that his brutally honest dissection of relationships on-stage has single-handedly caused more than 300 divorces and 120,000 breakups.
Now, in his first book, he picks up where his specials left off, and goes after every conceivable kind of relationship - with one's country (Sloss's is Scotland); with America; with lovers, ex-lovers, ex-lovers who you hate, ex-lovers who hate you; with parents; with best friends (male and female), not-best friends; with children; with siblings; and even with our own mortality.
In Everyone You Hate Is Going to Die, every human connection gets the mercilessly funny Sloss treatment as he illuminates the ways in which all of our relationships are fragile and ridiculous and awful - but also valuable and meaningful and important.
