Now, let me preface this by saying that I love my job. I am currently reviewing a book with the word ‘Penis’ in the title. I went to college. I know whats up. I have books on my “I Totally Red This Stuff” bookshelf by Hemingway, Fante, and even a book by Arthur J. Linkletter. And I have read them. Or at least the backs of them so I can get an idea of what they’re about when someone says “what is this one about? What did it mean to you?”.

Needless to say, I have been passed a copy of this book to read. And let me tell you: FINALLY a book that I can relate to. As far as I’m concerned this is a book that every man should own regardless of size nor sliver. He should proudly display this tome: back lit, in his collection, standing out amongst the rest like a beacon to all those visiting his bedroom. It should declare: I, The Owner Of This Book, Am Blessed.

The book is a humorous take on a self help book. If you were looking for a deep philosophical essay, you should probably pick up The Illiad. But this book is actually not a bad read and the kind of thing you can slip in between “Catcher In The Rye” and “The Hobbit” and hope that people understand that you’re being somewhat silly.

From this back of the book:

For generations, conventional wisdom stated that you could never sell a book with ‘penis’ in the title – until Quirk’s “Penis Pokey” shattered all of the rules, racking up 100,000 in net sales in just 18 months. In this same tradition comes “How to Live with a Huge Penis” – a gift every man will cherish, regardless of whether or not he actually needs it. Frankly, it’s enough for someone to think he needs it. This hilarious self-help parody is full of compassionate advice for men afflicted with Oversized Male Genitalia (OMG).Far too often, these men are banished to the fringes of society, victims of their own freakish length and girth. But Dr. Richard Jacob and Rev. Owen Thomas are here with a message of tolerance and hope, along with hilarious advice on ‘coming out’ to your family, sharing your assets with a partner, and avoiding injury in the workplace. Complete with a daily affirmations journal and inspiring quotes from leading self-help experts, “How to Live with a Huge Penis” will send an uplifting message to men around the world.

Available at Amazon, and wherever good books are sold.
