"In a Nut's Hell" by Jim Wood is a collection of satirical, humorous, and literary shorter-than-short stories geared for the waning attention span and aimed at providing the laughs we all so desperately need these days. Perfect for the coffee table or bathroom, Wood's serious silliness covers the topics we all must live with, from information overload to identity theft to hypocrisy to cancer to surprise parties to home invasion to religion to dung beetles taking over Washington DC. Wood hopes his book will make you laugh and think, ideally at the same time.
