Wake Up, Sir!

Wake Up, Sir! by Jonathan Ames is so fucking entertaining and clever!

I have not been able to concentrate on reading anything for a while. I guess because I've was stressed and busy with the dissertation. This book was just what the doctor ordered. The narrator is witty and neurotic, and in constant dialogue with his imaginary valet, Jeeves. His prose his clever at every sentence, and there were many laugh out loud moments and scenes. His humor, like all good humor, gets its punch from insightful observations, and in general I found myself loving the mind of this writer.
