Publisher's summary

From Nathan Rabin, former head writer of The A.V Club, coiner of the phrase Manic Pixie Dream Girl, proprietor of Nathan Rabin's Happy Place (nathanrabin.com) and the author of The Big Rewind, Weird Al: The Book (with Al Yankovic), You Don't Know Me But You Don't Like Me and 7 Days In Ohio comes a scathingly funny and satirical yet empathetic work of speculative fiction that imagines what might have happened behind closed doors when Kanye West shocked the world by meeting with Donald Trump at Trump Tower. It's a funny, sad, angry and ferociously original and alive meditation on these strange times and two unique, towering cultural figures from a true pop culture original. Praise for Nathan Rabin: "Smart and funny"-Mindy Kaling, The New Yorker "Brilliant"-John Green The Big Rewind: "I'm not as interested in anything as much as Nathan Rabin is interested in everything."-- Chuck Klosterman “With his uncanny grasp of cultural zeitgeist, Rabin could unseat Chuck Klosterman as the slacker generation’s vital critical voice.” —Heeb Magazine "Nathan Rabin's life reads like a fanboy's collision with Dostoyevsky. Hilarious, sad, truthful memoir is compulsively readable."-- Roger Ebert "[Rabin] has packed [The Big Rewind], like a cannon, full of caustic wit and bruised feelings. The result is a lo-fi, sometimes crude book that is nonetheless more effective (and affecting) than it has any right to be."-- The New York Times My World Of Flops: "Nathan Rabin's My Year of Flops is like watching a genius nurse a score of frightened, wounded baby birds back to life--a superhuman level of care and compassion lavished on That Which Never Had A Right To Exist. Truly brilliant." —Patton Oswalt You Don't Know Me But You Don't Like Me "An extremely funny and engaging book about how fandom provides people with surrogate families and a way to escape day-to-day banality." (Rolling Stone (four-star review) "I Love This Book"-Harris Wittels 7 Days in Ohio "Equally amusing, fascinating and moving...Rabin writes with his characteristic wit, but he also maintains an empathy that is staggering in its profundity and potency"—Salon
