More About This Book

Overview

In this fiendishly original new novel, Mark Leyner is a leather-blazer-wearing, Piranha 793-driving, narcotic-guzzling monster who has potential rivals eliminated by his bionically enhanced bodyguards, has his internal organs tattooed, and eavesdrops on the erotic fantasies of Victoria's Secret models -- which naturally revolve around him.

Leyner's jet-propelled roller derby through the cultures of celebrity, cyberpunk, and rabid egotism is exhilaratingly bizarre, exhaustingly funny -- and you'd better hope it's just fiction.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's Weekly
This uneven but often hilarious satire is based on the premise that the great success of the author's first novel and his irresistible, steroid-enhanced physique have catapulted him to intergalactic stardom. (Sept.) A reissue of Leyner's My Cousin, My Gastroenterologist is also due in September from Vintage ($10 *-74579-3 ).

    Feh

    It had its moments, but became quite tedious after awhile and lost my interest.

    Outstanding journey through Mark Leyner's, anything goes, world.

    This book is extremely smart and funny. It is a must for people who enjoyed the movie, The Big Lawowski. They both share a sense of randomness. In Et Tu Babe, Mark Leyner lives his outrageous fantasies in a world that revolves around the infamous Mark Leyner. A must read for those who enjoy the thrills and experiences of living the way you want to live.
