Griefstrike! The Ultimate Guide to Mourning Jason Roeder

There are other guidebooks aimed at helping you cope with the emotional and practical challenges of losing a loved one, but none have been written by a comedy writer whose therapeutic training went no further than a bachelor's program in psychology, and who has lived through this terrible experience and emerged intact enough to write a bunch of jokes about it. What The Daily Show's America (The Book) was to civics, Amy Sedaris' I Like You was to entertaining, and The Onion's Our Dumb Century was to the historical record of the 20th century, Jason Roeder's hilarious (and often moving) Griefstrike! is to death, mourning, and getting on with your life.
