Mundane subjects, yes. Unlike most confessional columnists, however, Broder is conscious of that fact. With him, wallowing in boring doings isn't an exercise in navel-gazing, it's a head-first dive into absurdity. And when it works, as it does in "The Great Indoors," it's very funny.

Synopsis
Ever had someone tell you just a little too much about himself? Meet Eric Broder, who made a habit of doing this--in the newspaper! Certain classic elements make a humor column irresistible. Workplace humiliation, weird food, rotten vacations, cats getting rubdowns, sex machines, raging self-delusion, enraged babies, at-risk squirrels, and of course pitiful date fantasies with Madonna and Katarina Witt--pure catnip to the modern reader. At least, that is, if you judge by the regular readers of Broder's "The Great Indoors" newspaper column. Between 1987 and 1996, Eric Broder captivated and even astonished readers of Cleveland's alternative weeklies with just such intimate and rarely believable details from his own remarkable life. And he did it with remarkable style. In fact, Broder's writing style has been said to recall an unholy combination of Dave Barry, Barry White, Dr. Laura, Super Joe Charboneau, Walt Disney, and former Pittsburgh Steeler linebacker Jack Lambert. This book is a treasure sure to be cherished throughout the millenium. Or at least to be left in the bathroom until it gets too mildewed to pick up. Either way, it will change your life., Ever had someone tell you just a little too much about himself? Meet Eric Broder, who made a habit of doing this--in public! This book collects the best of Broder's oddly pensive, occasionally bizarre, and frankly often embarrassing musings on daily life, written for Cleveland alternative papers between 1987 and 1996., Ever had someone tell you just a little too much about himself?

    The book, "The Unbreakable Brain," is better than "as described". It looks like a brand new, unused book in excellent condition, which makes it a super value for the cost. It was shipped in a protective package with free shipping, yet another super value! I am incredibly pleased with this seller, and they even sent me a coupon to buy four and get two books free. That's a fantastic gift and quite generous! Thank you for being an excellent seller!

    Fast seller shipping & received in less than a week. Well packed & protected in a sturdy box with 11 other books I ordered. The book, "The Ultimate Ocean Facts for Kids, Teens & Adults" is a soft bound chapter book that asks questions, gives interesting facts, & encourages additional reading. As described, the book will be perfect to spark interest in the classroom. Great eBay find & purchase at a super value price. Highly recommend this seller.
