Book Overview
"OMFG, I nearly up and died from laughter when I read Flatscreen. This is the novel that every young turk will be reading on their way to a job they hate and are in fact too smart for." --Gary Shteyngart, author of Super Sad True Love Story
Indie-lit star and Faster Times editor Adam Wilson delivers the gleefully absurd, effortlessly heartwarming story of one young man's struggle to shake off the listless, sexless, stoned mantle of suburban teenage life and become something better. Fortunately (maybe) for Eli, his apathetic quest finds a catalyzing agent in one Mr. Seymour J. Kahn, a paraplegic sex addict and two-bit silver screen star who initiates a mad decent into debasement and (of course) YouTube stardom--a transformation from which there will be no going back.

I really wanted to like it
Published by Alana , 3 years ago
The main character annoyed me and overall, the whole book just rubbed me the wrong way. I enjoy raunchy humor but this book fell short in so many ways. Not funny and not a good storyline. Written well enough though so I’ll give it 2 stars.
