Steve Bjork

Almost Domesticated Steve Bjork

He has been described as "one of Boston's funniest observational comedians." For more than 25 years, Steve Bjork has been delivering laughs with his stand-up. Now Bjork has proven his ability to leap from the stage to the page, while still delivering the same level of funny. This collection of short stories, essays, and "true tales from the road" are clever, often absurd, and hysterical. What would you do if you discovered that the planet's entire cow population suddenly had a personal vendetta against you? How do you survive a conversation with a Bad Breath Person? How does dyslexia help Bjork navigate his local donut shop? What outrageous, potentially fatal, event occurred during his performance in South Bend, IN? Why in the world would he be driving around with a bag of cat poop? From everyday experiences, Bjork artfully weaves hilarious observations and anecdotes. When he leaves this plane of reality - as he often does in this collection - he is wildly, side-splittingly funny. But the biggest reason why you should buy this book is...he needs money. He's not destitute or anything like that. He pays his bills and everything. Actually, he really doesn't like to talk about his financial burdens. Don't worry about him, he'll get by. It's not like he's been missing any meals, as his father might (does) say. But, then again, who couldn't use a couple of extra bucks? The profit on an individual book sale is relatively slim, so it's not like he's cheating you or anything. You have some money in your pocket. This book isn't terribly expensive. If you were to write a book, Bjork would probably buy it. Take a chance. Maybe you'll like it.
